The Kaiser Canyon Fire, ignited by lightning on July 16, has expanded northeast past Owhi Flats into Ferry County and toward Omak Lake as of July 31, 2026.

The Colville Agency reports dry fuels and shifting winds have driven fire behavior, with suppression efforts focused on protecting structures and ensuring community and firefighter safety. Road closures and evacuations remain in place near the fire perimeter.
