List of Washington wildfires
This is an incomplete list of major wildfires in Washington state history.
Major Washington wildfires chronologically[edit]
This list only includes "major fires" that destroyed over 5,000 acres (20 km2), incurred fatalities or damaged a significant amount of property. Older fires are increasingly underreported. For example, none of the wildfires of 1926-31 and 1943 that together destroyed more than 500,000 acres of the Colville National Forest are included.[1]
