What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an unplanned fire that burns through natural areas like forests or grasslands. These fires often start from a spark, lightning, or extreme heat combined with dry plants. Once a fire begins, wind and dry weather can help the flames move quickly across the ground.

Stay indoors to avoid breathing heavy smoke and always follow the directions provided by local emergency services or park rangers.
