Grand Canyon Covered in Smoke, Wildfire Destroys Historic Lodge

Posted on, September 6th - 8AM UTC

Parts of the Grand Canyon National Park have been closed for the rest of the 2025 season as wildfires burn across the region, covering parts of one of the U.S.’s most visited natural landmarks in smoke.

The North Rim’s Dragon Bravo Fire exploded in size by 500 acres on the evening of July 12 as gusty winds, dry air and above-normal heat hit the area.

The fires destroyed the historic Grand Canyon Lodge and numerous surrounding cabins, according to the National Park Service.
