Update: Authorities issued an all-clear by 10:30 p.m. Monday, lifting evacuation orders.
A wildfire has broken out in Fourmile Canyon west of Boulder on Monday night.
The blaze prompted the immediate evacuation in the area of 519 Wild Turkey Trail, a rural mountain stretch south of Salina.
Below is the map of the evacuation area as of 6:04 p.m.
“If you have received an evacuation notice, you need to stop what you're doing and evacuate out of the area. This is not a time to start calling people to try to figure out what's going on,” Vinnie Montez with the Boulder County Sheriff’s Office. “You need to heed the advice and do what you're being asked to do.”
The fire grew to three acres before being declared under control. The evacuation order was lifted just before 10:30 p.m.
A spokesman for Boulder County Fire told CPR News they issued an evacuation out of “an abundance of caution.”
