Utah is currently battling at least six active wildfires, and state officials say they are gearing up for what could be a prolonged and difficult fire season ahead.
The outbreak of fires across the state, sometimes called the Beehive State, has already taken a serious toll on at least one community. One of the blazes forced an entire town to evacuate, with residents unable to return home for nearly a week.
Authorities are monitoring the situation closely as conditions continue to raise concerns about additional fire activity in the weeks and months to come.
