Summary
The South Fork Fire in Nebraska is now 90% contained, with nearly 200 firefighters still on scene to finish suppression and cleanup. Sparking in the Panhandle near Crawford and Fort Robinson State Park, the blaze scorched nearly 40,000 acres and forced evacuations—though all were lifted by June 18. Communities rallied as crews worked tirelessly, and a new fire management team takes over tonight at 6 p.m. to secure the area and begin the long road to recovery.
