The Greer Fire in eastern Arizona was burning near the sites of Arizona's two largest modern wildfires, the Wallow Fire and the Rodeo-Chediski Fire, which together burned more than 1 million acres. The fire, reported May 13, was moving within the outer edges of the 2011 Wallow Fire, the largest fire in Arizona history. Two campers started the blaze on May 29, 2011, in the Bear Wallow Wilderness Area near Alpine and over the next month, it scorched 538,049 acres.
