Es muss die Hölle sein:  

“Westgate Resorts is likely entirely gone (more than 100 buildings), Black Bear Falls has likely lost every single cabin, Ober Gatlinburg reportedly is entirely destroyed,” TEMA said.

The agency estimated that more than 14,000 visitors and residents were evacuated from Gatlinburg, with thousands more being forced to flee Pigeon Forge and other towns and villages in the area.

The fire exploded from 10 acres Sunday night into a 500-acre blaze Monday night, according to Reuters.

As the fires began engulfing private structures, including the 300-room Park Vista hotel in downtown Gatlinburg, the Tennessee Emergency Management Agency declared a Level 3 state of emergency.
