All 2025 Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area Fires · 84 fires

A fire is listed here when it is located in Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area. Each complex is counted once, through its parent: the parent carries the complex's acres, and its member fires are listed beneath it without being counted again. A fire that crossed a county line is listed with the acres that burned in Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area, not its whole reported size. A fire located elsewhere that burned into Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area is listed too, at its Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area acres, and is not added to the Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area fire counts. County lines come from a different boundary dataset than state lines, so Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area's acres are counted along county lines and can differ a little at the edges from the figures on the state page.
