Two new wildfires are burning in Southern Arizona.
College Peak Fire
On Wednesday, the College Peak Fire was reported east of Douglas burning on State Trust Land.
The fire was about 120 acres and it was 10 percent contained. About 50 people are assigned to the fire along with several aircraft. It's burning primarily grass and brush.
There are no structures threatened, officials said.
Triple 2 Fire
Also, the Triple 2 Fire, which began in Mexico, has crossed the international border about 7 miles west of Nogales.
There are about 90 people, and three helicopters, assigned to the fire on the U.S. side. Mexican fire crews are working the fire south of the border. The fire is about 600 acres, with most of that burning on the Mexican said of the border.
U.S. crews were working to stop the fire from crossing west across Walker Canyon.
The human-caused fire is burning mainly brush and oak woodland on Coronado National Forest land. No structures are threatened.
Helicopters are using Peña Blanca Lake to dip their water buckets in the fire-fighting effort. Motorists should be aware of heavy truck traffic on Ruby Road near the lake.
