BOISE, Idaho (AP) — Firefighters have contained a wildfire north of Boise.

The Bureau of Land Management says the Dump Fire was contained Friday night after it burned about 425 acres in steep, rough terrain southwest of Horseshoe Bend.

No structures were damaged although there may have been voluntary evacuations Friday.

The BLM says it expected to have the fire controlled Saturday afternoon.

The cause of the fire is under investigation.
