Wildfires scorch thousands of acres across the West
| Quote From Source: | FILLMORE, Utah (CNN) -- Firefighters struggled to gain control of a massive wildfire in Utah on Sunday -- just one of about a dozen fires blazing throughout the western United States.
The Milford Flat fire in western Utah grew to more than 282,000 acres Sunday, making it the largest fire in the state's recorded history, officials told CNN affiliate KSL-TV.
"I don't know what to compare it to," said Susan Marzec, an official with the state's Bureau of Land Management.
