On Friday, the Timp Fire started in American Fork Canyon above Tibble Fork, prompting evacuations at Timpooneke Campground, Mutual Dell and the closure of Tibble Fork Reservoir. 

Firefighters responded with air support from helicopters and numerous ground resources, according to the Forest Service. 

By Saturday, authorities reported that the fire reached 100% containment at just two acres. Tibble Fork reopened Saturday and Timpooneke Campground reopened midday Sunday. 

“Thank you to the public for avoiding the area so firefighters could work at Timpooneke and at Tibble Fork,” Utah Fire Info said. “And especially thanks to the cooperation.” 

Also on Friday, the Stookey Fire started in Tooele County west of Vernon, sending smoke visible from Utah Valley. The blaze grew to 2,800 acres by Sunday due to erratic wind shifts and remained 0% contained. 

Utah County and Weber Basin hand crews were on scene alongside engine and air resources, and the Tooele County Sheriff’s Office to close Pony Express Road at state Route 36, according to fire authorities. 

On Saturday night, the Buck Basin fire started in Wasatch County north of Strawberry Reservoir and was mapped at three acres, according to Utah Fire Info. 

Elsewhere in the state, the Babylon Fire in San Juan County, the largest fire in the nation at more than 106,000 acres, reached 47% containment Sunday.
