FIRE AT POPULAR BUTTERMILK CABIN HUMAN CAUSED
Aspen—The fire that destroyed the old Fort Frog cabin on Buttermilk Mountain Sunday night was human
caused according to authorities. Chief Rick Balentine of the Aspen Volunteer Fire Department says it’s
tough to say what caused the fire but arson has been ruled out by the evidence gathered from the scene so far. Jeff Hanle with SkiCo says for decades, Fort Frog was a big hit with kids. The cause of the fire is still under investigation.
