Fires sparked in Browns Canyon Sunday afternoon.

The 10-acre fire started Sunday afternoon in Browns Canyon near the border of Summit and Wasatch counties.

Summit County Sheriff’s Sgt. Skyler Talbot says South Summit and Park City Fire District crews responded to the scene around 3 p.m.

Talbot said about a mile of Browns Canyon road near state Route 248 had been shut down so firefighters could assess the situation.

By shortly after 4:30 p.m., Utah Fire Info reported firefighters had stopped the blaze from spreading farther and structures are no longer threatened.

The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
