An airtanker can be seen in the distance above the Spring Creek Fire south of Parachute. The Rocky Mountain Complex Incident Management Team Two took command of the fire early Wednesday morning.

KDNK's Morgan Neely has Wednesday's news, including a look at the new resources being used to fight the Spring Creek Fire south of Parachute. Meanwhile, a new study shows that federal firefighters take on the dangerous job for less pay than state-employed fire personnel. And, we go to Utah for AstroFest, where we get about as close to the pure wonder and joy of seeing a shooting star as you can get over the radio.
