Mississippi River Fires - 2026

These are the most recent Mississippi River fires, MIS fire perimeters and national surface smoke information.

The table below shows fires near the MIS. Fires on trail or within a mile of the trail will show red text. If a fire perimeter intersects the trail the table will show start/end trail mile, first encounter to last encounter, the entire segment is not necessarily burned.

View maps of national surface smoke, near trail fires/perimeters or both layers together. Fires/perimeters are updated daily, surface smoke is updated hourly.

Surface smoke data and fire weather is from NOAA, fires/perimeters are from National Interagency Fire Center and hot spots are from NASA.

Details: Last 72 hours shown. Full vertical column smoke, hot spots and burn scars. Land cover is a fire weather risk index comprised of: temperature, wind, relative humidity and ground surface moisture. Land cover fire risk is color-coded as: green (low), greenish-brown (moderate) and brown (high). Click Fire Name in the table below for interactive map with fire perimeters.
