PLEASANT GROVE, Utah -- Evacuations impacting 34 homes in Pleasant Grove due to the "Battle Creek 2 Fire" were lifted Sunday.

The fire was 20 percent contained at 188 acres Sunday night and no longer threatening any structures.

The evacuation was ordered Saturday night and included homes northwest of the fire, between 200 South and Grove Creek Drive and east of 1350 East.

Battle Creek and Grove Creek trails remained closed as of Sunday night.

Approximately 90 firefighters were working to contain the blaze Sunday, and air units assisted as the steep terrain made it difficult for ground crews to navigate.

The fire has been determined as human-caused.
