A wildfire that tore through a historic Grand Canyon Lodge​ had been allowed to burn for days before erupting over the weekend, raising questions about federal officials' decision not to aggressively attack it right away.

A wildfire on the Grand Canyon’s North Rim has consumed some 5,000 acres and destroyed between 50 and 80 structures, including National Park Service administrative buildings, visitor facilities, a gas station and a water treatment plant.

U.S. Senators Ruben Gallego and Mark Kelly joined Gov. Katie Hobbs in calling on U.S. Interior Secretary Doug Burgum to launch a full investigation into the fire management decisions that led to the loss of the irreplaceable Grand Canyon Lodge on July 12.
