Know Before You Go!

Our interactive wildfire map provides real-time information about current wildfire activity in the United States. Our map, updated frequently with data from the National Interagency Fire Center and NASA, offers a comprehensive view of these restrictions to help you plan and stay safe.

Wildfires, both natural and human-caused, are a frequent occurrence during the Arizona wildfire season, leading to necessary forest closures. These closures enable wildland firefighters to manage and contain fires effectively. Our map allows you to track these closures and understand where firefighting efforts are concentrated. Please remember that the information on the map, while sourced from reliable state and federal agencies, should be independently verified for accuracy.
