A 2.1-hectare wildfire in the Tobacco Plains area south of Grasmere continues to burn out of control.
The BC Wildfire Service says the lightning-caused wildfire was first reported Sunday.
Wildfire Service officials say there are no evacuation alerts or area restrictions at this time, but firefighters are on the scene trying to contain the blaze.
Another lightning-caused fire was spotted north of Cranbrook on Saturday, but it only grew to 0.009 before firefighters got it under control.
Two other small wildfires in the East Kooteany are also under control.
