Fire investigators have now completed their investigation into a fire in Lake Country on Saturday and say they believe it was human caused, but not deliberately set.
The blaze broke out early in the evening on Saturday August 12 and took off on the east side of the highway near Lodge Road.
What started as grass fire was whipped up quickly by gusting winds, with the fire threatening nearby homes.
The fire department, with the assistance of BC Wildfire crews, were able to contain the blaze, limiting the damage to a shed structure that was destroyed.
