The fire burned about two acres. Crews worked overnight to mop up hot spots. Nobody was hurt and no structures were damaged.

A small fire at the base of Flagstaff Mountain in Boulder is under control. It only burned about a tenth of an acre on open space owned by the City of Boulder. There's no official word on how it started, but investigators think it was human-caused.
