Klondike wildfire map & smoke conditions

View official wildfires and smoke across the Klondike region of Yukon, including Dawson City, the Klondike Highway, mining areas, river valleys, and remote boreal country.

Use the regional view to understand official incident geography across multiple communities, then compare forecast smoke and measured AQHI before drawing conclusions about local air quality.

Regional membership is based on FireRadar's curated geographic extent and source-provided incident point locations. It is not an emergency boundary, predicted spread area, or municipal jurisdiction.

The dashed outline is FireRadar's curated regional counting extent. Incident points, smoke forecasts, and AQHI observations are separate datasets and should not be interpreted as evacuation boundaries or fire-spread predictions. FireRadar regional extents may overlap near transition areas. Regional totals are useful local summaries and must not be added together to produce a province total.

Regional context

Wildfire context across Klondike

The Klondike combines boreal forest, major river valleys, active and historic mining areas, Indigenous lands, tourism routes, remote roads, and a small number of widely separated communities. Wildfires can affect highway access, mining and tourism operations, aviation, remote properties, traditional land use, and smoke across long stretches of northern interior terrain.

What changed around Klondike

Full Yukon daily comparison →

Matched regional examples from FireRadar's completed 2026-08-132026-08-14 direct-official comparison. The retained incident-detail list is intentionally bounded, so absence here is not presented as proof that nothing changed in the region.

No regional incident from the bounded daily detail list matched a current source-provided point inside this extent. Use the province comparison for the complete jurisdiction-level counts.

Forecast layer

Klondike smoke forecast

Use FireRadar's ECCC FireWork smoke forecast to see modelled smoke movement across and beyond Klondike. Forecast smoke is not proof that a nearby wildfire is the source of local smoke.

Measured conditions

Air quality and AQHI

AQHI and observed PM2.5 provide measured air-quality context and remain distinct from FireWork forecast smoke. Station coverage varies across a region, especially in rural and remote areas.

Official source and emergency information

Official Yukon text records are the source of truth. Geometry is used as placement context only when FireRadar can match the official fire ID.

FireRadar does not issue evacuation orders, emergency notices, road closures, or fire-spread predictions. Follow provincial, municipal, Indigenous, and emergency authorities for current instructions.
