These are incomplete lists of the major and minor wildfires in Washington state history, along with total costs of the fires for the years starting in 2002.
Wildfires are infrequent on the western side of the Cascade Crest, but a regular component of Eastern Washington ecology.
This list only includes "major fires" that destroyed over 5,000 acres (20 km2), incurred fatalities or damaged a significant amount of property.
For example, none of the wildfires of 1926–31 and 1943 that together destroyed more than 500,000 acres of the Colville National Forest are included.
