Crews arrived quickly and reported heavy smoke and fire showing. A second-alarm was requested, bringing in more towns from around the Lakes Region. Hampering firefighting efforts were temperatures hovering around 0-degrees, and moderate wind pushing the wind chill down to about negative 20-degrees.
