#NenanaRidgeComplex forest roads restricted to firefighter traffic only

BY 2025 NENANA RIDGE COMPLEX on AUGUST 7, 2025

“…Fire Update: Unmanned Aerial Systems continue to detect areas of heat, many of which are well within the fires’ perimeters. Guided by the drone operators, the Alaska Division of Forestry & Fire Protection Fairbanks 1 Crew is digging out hot spots along the edge of the fires so that they will be exposed to the forecast rains. Digging out the areas of heat along the perimeter to catch rain will utilize the natural elements to extinguish them. If these areas were not exposed, they would continue to smolder in the deeper layers of duff where the rain would have little to no effect. Excavators continue to work in Little Goldstream community, breaking up dozer berms and rehabbing fire lines. Graders have started working on Dineege Avenue and Toghotthele Road…”

Red Flag Warnings for Copper River Basin and Tok Cutoff Today, Delta Area Tomorrow

BY ALASKA FIRE PIOS on AUGUST 6, 2025

“…The National Weather Service has issued a Red Flag Warning for today, Wednesday, August 6th, from 1:00 PM to 9:00 PM for the Copper River Basin extending to the Tok Cutoff. Hot, dry, and windy conditions are expected, creating a high risk for new fires to ignite and for existing fires to spread rapidly.

A Red Flag Warning means that critical fire weather conditions are occurring or are about to occur. In Alaska, this means warm temperatures, low humidity, and strong winds are combining with dry fuels (like grass and dead trees) to create a high risk of wildfire.

This warning is also in effect for the Delta area tomorrow, Thursday, August 7th, from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM…”

#7MileLookoutFire crews focus on remaining hotspots and equipment removal

BY 2025 7 MILE LOOKOUT FIRE on AUGUST 5, 2025

“…Operations: As suppression efforts begin to wind down on the 7 Mile Lookout Fire, crews remain focused on securing the fire perimeter and preparing for the eventual removal of equipment. Firefighters from Tanana Chiefs Type 2 Initial Attack, Gannett Glacier Type 2 Initial Attack, Pioneer Peak Hotshots, and North Star Crew continue working along 7 Mile Lookout Road. Their focus continues to be on piling and burning hazard trees and woody debris to widen containment lines and reduce the risk of future fire spread, particularly in areas with lingering heat in deep duff layers.Crews also conducted multiple test burns between two previously burned sections on the southern perimeter to remove remaining black spruce and unburned fuels. However, due to high humidity and recent scattered rain showers, fuels under the canopy remained too wet to carry fire effectively. These burns produced limited results.On Tuesday, firefighters will shift to the southeast corner of the fire to continue piling trees, stacking logs, eliminating remaining hot spots, and reinforcing firelines…”
