Himalaya Road Fire 2025

Himalaya Road and Aggie Creek Fires: These two fires, located north of Fairbanks, are being managed together as a group. As of July 30, 2025, the Himalaya Road Fire (#223) is approximately 6,057 acres and 50% contained. The Aggie Creek Fire (#268) is approximately 34,837 acres and 5% contained.

Cooler, wet weather has significantly moderated fire behavior, and crews are now focusing on suppression repair and monitoring the perimeters. Command of the fires transitioned from a Type 2 Incident Management Team to an Ad Hoc Type 3 Incident Management Team on July 27, 2025.

Level 1 "READY" evacuations remain in effect for residents in the area, meaning they should be prepared for potential evacuation. The Olnes Pond Campground is closed to the public for use by fire crews.
