In the Coconino National Forest, crews have contained 25 percent of the Canyon Fire, which has burned 6,000 acres northeast of Blue Ridge Reservoir near Arizona 87, according to Brady Smith, a spokesman for the Coconino National Forest.
The fire started Friday from a lightning strike, Smith said.
Crews in the Tonto National Forest are preparing to see more wildfires sparked by lighting as the Arizona monsoon season gears up.
Crew members are on duty to keep track of any reports of smoke after the thunderstorms move through, said David Albo, a spokesman for Tonto National Forest.
