Crews are working an active wildfire in Rensselaer County, and the DEC has closed Berlin State Forest, Taconic Ridge State Forest, the Taconic Crest Trail and the Mattison Hollow Trail until further notice. It comes about a week after a wildfire burned about 250 acres in Rensselaer County and western Massachusetts. WKTV reports much of the state is “abnormally dry”, so we'd skip the campfire.
