Firefighters make progress on Tok Area Wildfires as Evacuation Levels Ease and Temperatures Cool
BY ALASKA DIVISION OF FORESTRY & FIRE PROTECTION on JUNE 25, 2025
As of Tuesday, Evacuation levels for neighborhoods near the #7MileLookoutFire (#222) were reduced as fire activity was moderated and firefighters made significant progress: Residents on Butch Kuth Ave, Moose Nugget, and Goshawk Rd were moved from GO (Level 3) to SET (Level 2). Residents can now return home. Please be cautious and watch for emergency personnel working in the area. Residents north of Butch Kuth Ave and on Jack Wade Rd were moved from SET (Level 2) to READY (Level 1). Neighborhoods near Mukluk, previously in READY (Level 1) status, had evacuation levels lifted.
Cooler temperatures and incoming precipitation from the last two days have helped moderate fire behavior on the 7 Mile Lookout Fire (#222), located 9 miles southwest of Tok, offering some reprieve for firefighters and aiding in containment efforts. However, fire managers remain vigilant, monitoring for potential new starts and increased fire activity due to forecasted lightning. The fire is currently estimated at 1,373 acres.
Four dozers continue to expand and improve fire lines that will create a fuel break to prevent the fire from spreading north to Eagle Trail and east of 7 Mile Access Rd.
