Burning restrictions

Yukon has general burning conditions that everyone must follow between April 1 and September 30. There are also 3 levels of special fire restrictions that are put in place during periods of high fire danger.

Learn more about fire restrictions.

Your municipality, as well as national parks, may have their own rules for burning. Know the rules for where you plan to burn before you start a fire.

Special fire restrictions

There are no special fire restrictions in place right now.

Be careful when using fire; a wildfire can still catch and spread quickly. Do not build campfires larger than needed, and ensure all fires are completely out before leaving them.

What do these ratings mean?
We rate the fire danger rating to show how dangerous a fire would be if it started. A higher fire danger rating means more dangerous conditions.
What does N/R mean?
N/R means the station is not reporting. Sometimes this happens when it’s too early in the season or the station is being worked on.
