Winds of 15 mph out of the north caused the fire to spread, and Palm Springs firefighters, along with crews from Cal Fire Riverside, the Cathedral City Fire Department, the United States Forest Services, the National Park Service, the Bureau of Land Management and the Bureau of Indian Affairs, battled the blaze through the night.

The fire was contained at 22 acres around 6:30 a.m., Barrier said.

No structures were damaged and no one was injured.
