MISSOULA COUNTY -

Highway 200 at Marshall Canyon Rd is now open tonight after a small fire on the side of the road forced a closure this afternoon.

Just after 4 p.m. winds knocked a tree onto power lines near the turnoff to Marshall Canyon.

The Missoula County Sheriff's Office says that's what sparked the fire. Both sides of the road were closed as the fire was put out and crews worked to get the tree off the road.
