A fire has burned 700 acres in Fort Carson’s training area as of Tuesday morning, according to officials with the Mountain Post.

Crews are continuing to battle the blaze, which started Monday afternoon. The fire was 50% contained as of Tuesday morning, Fort Carson spokeswoman Emily Peacock said.

Smoke may be visible in the area Tuesday. Officials with Fort Carson said no roads were closed, no one has been displaced or injured, and no structures have been evacuated or damaged.

Also Tuesday, the 2nd Stryker Brigade Combat Team is conducting its regular artillery training and expects to generate more noise and dust at Fort Carson. Nearby residents will likely hear artillery this week through March 7

Fort Carson said in a news release about the training they are open to working through noise issues that arise.

“We strive to balance our training requirements with respecting our neighboring communities,” it said.

Noise complaints should be directed to the Fort Carson Public Affairs Office at (719) 526-9849.
