Forest Service officials announced late Monday afternoon that crews had fully contained the Switzerland Fire around 2 p.m., hours after initially lifting pre-evacuation notices in anticipation of the dousing.

Officials said that the fire near the Switzerland Trail had only reached roughly one acre in size on U.S. Forest Service land, and that it was likely human caused. The U.S. Forest Service said that air support and ground crews had success limiting the spread of the fire.

They added that despite the containment, smoke may still be visible from the “interior” as crews continue to “mop up.”

Pre-evacuation notices were issued for several neighborhoods in the area, but those were lifted shortly after noon.

Officials also lifted road closures at Sugarloaf Mountain Road and Sugarloaf Road.

Boulder County is currently under a burn ban, while the U.S. Forest service lands are under Stage 1 fire restrictions due to the hot and dry weather.
