State wildfire officials say more than 64% of those were human caused with almost 150 fires sparked by cars, 100 from open burns and 40 from campfires.
The state’s largest fires — the Beulah Fire in Summit County and Deer Creek Fire in northern San Juan County on the Colorado border — are nearing 100% containment.
The Beulah Fire has burned more than 5,700 acres in the Uintah-Wasatch-Cache National Forest.
The cause remains under investigation.
