Please avoid all nonessential movement, as fire activity remains unpredictable and crews need clear access to operate safely.Reentry for residents will require verification of residency or property ownership at the closure points on Colorado River Road. Federal Law Enforcement and Sheriff’s Office personnel will facilitate this process and issue authorized passes accordingly.
Firefighting and structure protection efforts are actively underway, and residents traveling to and from their properties should be aware that fuel reduction and defensible space work may result in noticeable changes to the landscape. Please do not move or drive over any firefighting or water-handling equipment, as crews may need to use it quickly if fire conditions shift. Always yield to fire personnel and vehicles, and know that teams are working diligently to restore full access and help residents return to their homes permanently.
If you hold a permit issued by the Forest Service or Bureau of Land Management, please coordinate directly with the issuing agency to arrange access to the restricted area.
“Thank you for your cooperation. It will allow us to provide this limited access for evacuated residents and still ensure safety for you and firefighting personnel, “ Sheriff Van Beek said.

Evacuation Information from the Eagle County Sheriff's Office:Eagle/Garfield Counties - Starting Monday, August 25 at 10 a.m., the Eagle County and Garfield County Sheriff’s Offices, in coordination with Derby Fire managers, will begin transitioning Sweetwater Valley and Sheep Creek from full evacuation to pre-evacuation (SET) status. This change will allow residents to return to their properties while remaining prepared to leave if conditions change.
"We’re grateful to offer limited access so residents can rest in their homes for now. That said, livestock are not to be returned yet, as fire activity could shift and safety remains our top priority.
This is not a full repopulation, as the risks are still very high and residents should remain prepared to vacate at any time,” said James Van Beek, Eagle County Sheriff.
To protect both residents and fire crews, travel within the restricted area must remain extremely limited. If travel is essential, the best window is between 10:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. when conditions are safest and least disruptive to emergency operations.
They are working closely with the school district to ensure continuity for students. School buses will run at their normal times, with pickup and drop-off occurring at regular locations. This is considered essential travel and will be supported throughout the response.

Aug 24 at 10:18 PM EDTAs of late afternoon on Sunday, August 24, 2025, the Derby Fire is 5,346 acres in size, with 0% containment and 648 personnel. Firefighters were able to conduct a successful burnout operation in the Horse Creek Drainage on the southern side of the fire before the afternoon rain. Line construction continued along the southwest and southeast edges of the fire.
Firefighters had strong support from aerial resources today, working with both retardant and water drops. Two military modular air firefighting systems (MAFFs) and supporting personnel arrived to assist with retardant drops. Aircraft aiding firefighting operations included four single-engine airtankers (SEATs), one large air tanker (LAT), two heavy helicopters, and a helicopter flying reconnaissance missions which also retrieved firefighters dropped off to tackle spot fires. Two air attack planes coordinated retardant and water bucket drops, a lead plane guided the large tankers, and two Type 3 helicopters acted as communications repeaters.
The fire received widespread rain with heavier amounts in some areas. However, rain may not have penetrated denser tree canopies, per Derby Fire Colorado.

Aug 23 at 2:55 PM EDTCurrent Status: Outflow winds have begun to push the Derby Fire south towards the Sweetwater Canyon area. Crews have worked to protect over 350 structures by positioning sprinkler kits and removing surrounding fuels. Other firefighters have constructed about 3 total miles of dozer and hand lines along the fire’s southern perimeter using existing roads to connect them and form control lines. Aircraft are supporting firefighting efforts by dropping water and flame retardant along the west flank. The Forest Service is investigating an accident that took place on Friday involving a helicopter assigned to the Derby Fire. The pilot was checked by local medical personnel and is reported to be in good condition with only minor injuries. Incident managers held a community meeting Friday evening to engage the public and answer questions. The Colorado River Rd. closure has been extended south, from the Dotsero roundabout’s north side to Red Dirt Rd.
