A wildfire ignited on July 11 in Wasatch County, Utah, and grew to around 150 acres, according to Fox 13 Salt Lake City.

The fire, dubbed the Deer Creek Fire, started near Deer Creek Reservoir in northern Utah.

Air support from the Dollar Ridge Fire burning nearby was diverted to help contain the new Deer Creek Fire, according to KUTV.

Josh Pitts said in his videos that the fire was started by the Heber Creeper train in the area because of dry conditions. News reports could not confirm this at the time of publication. Credit: Josh Pitts via Storyful
