Crews responding to small lightning fire southwest of Sedona

Crews are responding to a small lightning-caused fire located 6 miles southwest of Sedona and west of the Village of Oak Creek.

The Blackjack Fire, currently one-tenth of an acre in size, has a low potential for growth.

Resources assigned to the fire include a helicopter conducting surveillance, and an engine crew hiking to the fire line.

The fire is smoldering in rough terrain, and steep slopes provide challenging access for firefighters.

Smoke will likely remain visible during fire suppression efforts.
