The battle against the fire on southern Utah's Pine Valley Mountains continues Sunday with 400 firefighters now at the scene.

Residents in the community of Pine Valley in Washington County were told to evacuate Thursday night as a new wildfire blazes nearby.

The Forsyth Fire prompted mandatory evacuations in the Pine Valley community, forcing 400 to 500 people from their homes. There are approximately 450 homes in the area, with half of those inhabited by full-time residents.
