Labor Mountain Fire is the largest wildfire this season in Washington, burning 10 miles south of Leavenworth.

Latest update

The Labor Mountain Fire was started by lightning on Monday, September 1st, due to a dry lightning storm passing over Central Washington that started multiple new wildfires in the Chelan County and Kittitas County areas of the Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest. It started in steep terrain between Standup and Stafford Creeks, about 10 miles northeast of Cle Elum, WA. This is one of the drier areas of the Cle Elum Ranger District. With the many fires started in the region from this storm, firefighting resources were stretched. An aggressive, full-suppression strategy has been implemented, while protecting critical resources at risk. These resources include local communities, Highway 97 and other infrastructure, historic structures, recreation residences and popular recreation areas. Public and fire fighter safety is the top priority.

Management of the fire is being transferred back to the local units of the Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest, Bureau of Land Management, and Washington Department of Natural Resources at 6:00 pm on October 23.

For future updates related to the fire and forest closure, please visit the Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest website:  https://www.fs.usda.gov/r06/okanogan-wenatchee/alerts
