DOUGLAS COUNTY, Colo. -- Waterton Canyon's popular trail in Douglas County will be closed to the public on Friday.

That's because Forest Service vehicles need access to the Mill Gulch Fire.

The small 3-acre fire is burning on U.S. Forest Service land in Douglas County.

The fire started about 4 p.m. on Thursday. It's burning approximately 4.5 miles from the bottom of the canyon on a ridge.

Officials believe the fire was sparked by lightning.

The canyon is expected to reopen this weekend.
