Haunting photos show wildfire as frightening backdrop to golf game
Harrowing photos out of Washington this week show golfers playing their rounds as the devastating Eagle Creek wildfire burns in the distance.
The photos, taken by Reuters photographer Kristi McCluer at the Beacon Rock Golf Course in North Bonneville, Washington, give a glimpse into the devastation the fire has wreaked on the Northwest.
The blaze began outside of Portland, Oregon, earlier this week but has engulfed over 10,000 acres, including across the river into Washington. As of Tuesday, it is one of 81 wildfires currently affecting the United States.
