The general location of the Red Fire in California
The Red Fire was a wildfire that burned in Yosemite National Park, Mariposa County, during California's wildfire season in 2022. Lightning started the fire, which was then discovered on August 4. The fire burned 8,364 acres (3,385 ha) before it was declared completely contained on September 20. The Red Fire burned within the footprint of the 2001 Hoover Fire.[1][2]
Along with the Rodgers Fire, which was also caused by lightning and burned concurrently in the northern portion of the park, the Red Fire is being managed by Yosemite National Park for ecological resource benefits; both fires are partially corralled by natural barriers such as granite outcrops.[3] A third fire, the Aspen Fire, also burned in the park at the same time, in the footprint of the 2013 Rim Fire.[4][5]
