The Henry Fire, reported on July 16, 2026, remains confined within its current perimeter as of September 18, 2026, according to Oregon Department of Forestry (ODF). No growth is anticipated outside the established fire perimeter, though interior smoldering will continue due to dry vegetation.

ODF's Central Oregon District, now under ODF CIMT 1 command, is prioritizing repair work to restore the landscape to natural conditions. Crews will continue to focus on extinguishing remaining heat sources and improving containment lines.
