    A vegetation fire that burned through more than 170 acres of dry brush in Madera County is now fully contained.

    CAL FIRE says the flames started just before 5 pm Sunday along Highway 41 and Avenue 11 -- that's near Valley Children's Hospital.

    The flames started on the side of the roadway and were stopped at the San Joaquin River.

    CAL FIRE says dry grass, mixed with winds, created a challenge for crews.

    The cause of the fire is under investigation.
