Utah’s Tank Hollow Fire nears 4,200 acres

Entering its third week, the lightning-caused Tank Hollow Fire had blackened nearly 4,200 acres of timber, grass and brush in Spanish Fork Canyon by Tuesday.
Fire Information Officer Jason Curry said the blaze, which began on Aug. 11 about 20 miles east of Spanish Fork and north of U.S. 6, was holding at 20 percent containment. Crews don’t expect to have the blaze, burning in remote, rugged and steep terrain, fully hemmed in until Oct. 15.
