The Rocky Canyon Fire is fully contained within Summit County, the Sheriff's Office announced Monday, Aug. 17, ending evacuation orders for all residents who spent days watching the 16,464-acre blaze creep through the mountains east of Henefer.

All Ready, Set and Go evacuation statuses have been lifted, according to a Summit County newsletter published Thursday, Aug. 20. But the fire isn't over. Crews remain on scene, some road closures are still in effect and the burn scar now poses a new threat: flooding and debris flows whenever it rains.

The human-caused fire ignited Aug. 7 and burned across Summit and Morgan counties, destroying two small structures and forcing more than 500 people to evacuate at its peak. No major structures were lost.

State Route 65 and State Route 66 reopened Monday, Aug. 17, as debris remains on parts of the roadway and drivers should watch for mudslides near the burn scar any time it rains. Entrances to the Wildlife Management Area and the north entrance of East Canyon State Park remain closed. East Canyon Reservoir is closed to motorized boating but open to non-motorized activities at the south entrance.

The containment figure applies only to Summit County boundaries. Whether the fire has reached full containment in Morgan County has not been confirmed.

Crews are now working on rehabilitation and stabilization around the perimeter, according to TownLift. The burn scar carries an elevated risk of flooding and debris flows, and the county is urging residents near affected areas to stay aware of changing conditions, particularly during rainstorms.
