Family films frantic escape from Colorado wildfire NEW: A Colorado family captures their harrowing escape from a wildfire on video The governor suspends "controlled" fires until an investigation is completed (CNN) -- The cell-phone video shows a scene straight out of hell: a darkness lit only by billowing smoke, tinted orange and red from nearby flames, as a vehicle hurtles toward safety. "Daddy?" says a small, tearful voice, tinged with panic. "We're going to make it," Doug Gulick tells his child. We're going to be fine. "Where's Mom?" the child says, then, urgently, "Why is she stopping?" Kaleb Gulick, 13, shot the video in the car with his father as his family, in two cars, fled a deadly Colorado wildfire that crept too close to their home earlier this week. Firefighters were hoping to make more progress Thursday on containing the fire, which has burned more than 4,000 acres in a mountainous area near Denver. After feverish battles by more than 500 firefighters, the blaze was about 15% contained Wednesday, authorities said. He suspended the use of prescribed burns by state agencies on state lands -- including state parks, refuges, State Land Board lands and any agency that manages lands -- or under contract on nonstate lands, such as by the Colorado State Forest Service. Doug Gulick told CNN on Thursday as the family loaded the cars, "the last thing I saw was this large flame shot up, and we realized we had to go right then." "We turned that corner and went from daylight into pure darkness," he said. Gulick's wife, Kim Olson, was in the vehicle in front of her husband. She explained Thursday she put the brakes on -- prompting her child's panic -- because she was fumbling for the headlights in the darkness, and because she hesitated, wondering if the family was going to make it out or whether she and Gulick should turn around. But then, she said, their neighbor went "flying" past them, and she decided to keep going. "There it is, right there," Doug Gulick tells the children on the video as they pass flames. "Oh, my gosh!" a child exclaims, and Gulick soothes them as the sky brightens, "We're out. We're out. Kaleb Gulick said his father handed him the phone and "I just did my best to capture the whole experience." Olson said their home was still standing as of Tuesday, when they saw an aerial shot of its roof line and that of their neighbor. She said she has received word that firefighters are camping out on her driveway and her neighbor's, putting out spot fires. Their home is not out of danger yet, she said, but the family is "still hoping for the best." And as firefighters work to extinguish the blaze, the search continues for a woman missing since the fast-moving wildfire swept through her home. A search and rescue team of 32 people and six dogs searched 60 acres Wednesday around her house and found no sign of the woman, said Jacki Kelley, a public information officer the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office.
