The smoke is moving to the north, through central Alasak, moving over Anchorage and Fairbanks, and reaching northwestern Alasaka and northeastern Yukon Territory. Yukon/Northwest Territories: Moderately dense residual smoke can be seen moving across the southern parts of Yukon, this smoke is most likely from the fire that has been burning in southern Yukon over the past few days. The large fire just west of Great Bear Lake continues to produce moderately dense to dense smoke that is moving both to the northeast and southwest. Just ousth of Great Slave Lake, dense smoke can be seen moving north towards the lake. This smoke is from fires that have been burning just west of Lake Athabasca over the past few weeks. Banks
