UPDATED:

Boulder County fire crews quickly contained a small fire burning in the Rabbit Mountain Open Space northeast of Lyons.

Mountain View Fire Rescue officials posted about the fire burning north of Colorado 66 at 5:40 p.m. Thursday. The 2-acre fire was fully contained as of 6:25 p.m., according to the Lyons Fire Protection District.

The area is east of the Stone Canyon burn scar, which scorched 1,557 acres north of Lyons, killing one person and destroying five homes three weeks ago.

This is a developing story and may be updated.
