WEBER COUNTY, Utah, July 12, 2024 (Gephardt Daily) — North View and Weber Fire districts were dispatched Friday evening to a brush fire about halfway up the North Ogden Divide, below the roadway.

Crews were alerted at 7:41 p.m.

“Units arrived on scene and extinguished an acre fire that was burning in sage brush, and oak brush,” a North View Fire statement says.

“The fire is contained.”

A Forest Service crew was called in because it was on federal land, the statement says.

“The fire is believed to be human caused and is under further investigation.”
