Dragon Fire Escalates to Megafire in Grand Canyon



A wildfire burning in Grand Canyon National Park has grown into a “megafire,” scorching over 111,970 acres and prompting the closure of the park’s North Rim for the remainder of the 2025 season.

The Dragon Bravo Fire, ignited by a lightning strike on July 4, expanded rapidly after fire conditions changed unexpectedly. A fire that consumes more than 100,000 acres is classified as a megafire by the U.S. Forest Service.

As of Friday, the blaze is 9% contained, with nearly 1,200 personnel battling the flames. Fueled primarily by trees and brush, the fire continues to advance northward into a scar from a 2006 wildfire.

The wildfire has caused extensive damage, destroying 70 structures, including the historic Grand Canyon Lodge and the Grand Canyon Visitor’s Center. According to reports, extreme fire behavior and a subsequent chlorine gas leak also forced firefighter evacuations. Smoke accumulation from the blaze has led to the closure of several trails within the canyon’s inner rim.

While officials report a slight rise in relative humidity, which could aid containment efforts, extreme fire conditions persist throughout the region.
