The June 2022 Flagstaff wildfires was a series of wildfires burning near the city of Flagstaff, Arizona. At least three wildfires were reported near Flagstaff and caused hundreds of people to evacuate. However, two of the three reported fires, which are the Haywire and Double fires, combined on June 13. Before the merger of both of the fires, the Double Fire burned . The first wildfire to be discovered was the Pipeline Fire on June 12 at around 10:15 AM (MST); By Monday evening on June 13, the fire burned . As of June 13, 2022, no injuries or deaths have been reported, and one structure has been destroyed. A total of 26 homes in Timberline were lost in the tunnel fire in April of 2022. The cause of that fire remains unknown although citizens blame the USFS for not thoroughly extinguishing a controlled burn. That was never proven. The pipeline fire was caused by a simpleton from Louisiana burning his used toilet paper in the middle of a blinding wind storm and up to 65 mph gusts, necessitating several days of "red flag warnings". The pipeline and haywire fires were deemed 100% contained two weeks later when monsoon storms put the fires out, but severe, persistent and life-threatening post fire/burn scar flash flooding began immediately in its stead.
