The B-C Wildifire Service says a small blaze that was burning out of control near the Pavilion Reserve north of Lillooet did not grow overnight.
Wildfire service spokeswoman Carly Desrosiers says the roughly 20-hectare blaze was being held, but crews are keeping a close watch.
Flames spread quickly through bush and grassland yesterday, prompting the Ts'kw'aylaxw (SKWAY'-lax) First Nation to issue an evacuation alert for members of the Pavilion Reserve -- and the wildfire service website shows the alert is still in place.
A cause of the blaze is under investigation. (CHNL)
