Fresh imagery from the Four Mile Canyon fire in Colorado

As you may have seen, last week brought a major wildfire to Four Mile Canyon in Boulder, Colorado, with 169 homes and 6,181 acres destroyed.
Similar to their response to the San Bruno fires, Google is releasing as much data as possible, including some brand new imagery of the area.
