2025 Montana Wildfires
Newest wildfires in Montana
Largest wildfires in Montana this season
A fire is listed here when it is located in Montana. 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 the border is listed with the acres that burned in Montana, not its whole reported size. A fire located elsewhere that burned into Montana is listed too, at its Montana acres, and is not added to the Montana fire counts.
