Wildfire reported on eastbound Alaska Highway east of mile 1315

Alaska 511 reported a wildfire affecting eastbound travel on the Alaska Highway 1.33 miles east of mile marker 1315 at 7:25 a.m. Tuesday. The agency rated the event "major" severity. No full closure is in effect, and the card lists no lane-impact data.

The alert tells motorists to reduce speed, watch for emergency response vehicles and expect minor delays. Alaska 511 last updated the card at 7:29 a.m. Tuesday and listed a planned end at 7:26 a.m. Tuesday. That timing reflects the status on the 511 card, not a confirmed end to conditions on the road.

The stretch is the same corridor that saw evacuations a day earlier. Alaska News previously covered Level 3 GO evacuations near Tok as the Mukluk Fire spread, with the Tok Dog Mushers Association Hall at 1311 Alaska Highway serving as the evacuation point. State notices described two different evacuation stretches along the highway rather than a single defined zone, and the highway stayed open through those orders.

The 511 card lists no cause, size or containment figure. Any such details would have to come from a named official fire-management update by state or federal fire managers.
