Wildfire under control in Marmora & Lake

By Hailey MacDonald Aug 15, 2025 | 2:28 PM

A wildfire in Marmora & Lake, south of Coe Hill, is now considered under control.

The Ministry of Natural Resources advised the municipality and the community that the blaze, known as Haliburton 18, is still around the same size as initially reported earlier this week at a little less than 13 hectares.

Three crews from the Ministry of Natural Resources, along with air support, worked on getting the fire controlled this week.

Municipal officials are asking the community to stay vigilant to allow crews to continue to do their work.

Residents are also being reminded that there is still a complete fire ban in place for all of Marmora & Lake.
