A wildfire has forced the Grand Canyon National Park’s North Rim to close for the rest of the 2025 season and destroyed the lodge located in the park, a historic landmark, the National Park Service said.

A wildfire that leveled a historic lodge and visitors center on the Grand Canyon’s North Rim grew rapidly more than a week after it began as firefighters pushed ahead Monday with efforts to slow its spread.
