ALBANY — Dry conditions and the effects of foliage damage from the impacts of caterpillar infestation could be partial factors leading to a forest fire that spread Sunday afternoon in Albany.

The location was on a forested ridge behind White Mountain Stove Shop on the west side of Route 16, behind the gravel pits, according to Conway Village Fire Chief Steve Solomon.
