ALBUQUERQUE (KRQE) - Firefighters will be keeping an eye on the Chimney Fire in the Sandia's Monday.
Right now they have the fire 25 percent contained.
It has burned about 20 acres in a very steep and rugged area.
All hiking trails are open now, but the La Luz and Piedra Lisa trail parking lots are closed because firefighters are keeping their equipment there.
Investigators are still trying to figure out how the fire started.
