A massive wildfire ignited just a few miles from Flagstaff on Sunday morning, and people hiking and camping in the area are being advised to leave.
The Pipeline Fire was reported at 10:15 a.m. on June 12 by a lookout, and it started 6 miles north of Flagstaff just west of Schultz Pass. Videos below.
Look at this video of the #PipelineFire now burning 1,000 acres about six miles north of #Flagstaff.

The wind (around 20 mph right now) is pushing the smoke through Schultz Pass toward Doney Park.
