TFA blurb
The Goodwin Fire was a wildfire that burned 28,516 acre in the U.S. state of Arizona from June 24 to July 10, 2017. The fire destroyed 17 homes and damaged another 19 structures, but no one was killed. The fire was first detected on June 24, 2017, by a two-man fire patrol that spotted smoke in the Bradshaw Mountains near Prescott, Arizona. Fed by high winds and undisturbed growths of chaparral, and with fire crews impaired by difficult terrain, the fire grew from 150 acre on June 24 to 25,000 acre on June 29. Several communities in Yavapai County were evacuated, and Arizona State Route 69 was closed. Firefighting aircraft were grounded twice by civilian drones operating illegally in the burn area, but firefighters made rapid progress containing the fire's spread after June 28, and it was fully contained on July 10. Investigators did not determine any particular cause for the fire.
