Thumb Fire
1881 wildfire in Michigan, United States
The Thumb Fire took place on September 5, 1881, in the Thumb area of Michigan in the United States. The fire, which burned over a million acres (4,000 km2) in less than a day, was the consequence of drought, hurricane-force winds, heat, after-effects of the Port Huron Fire of 1871, and ecological damage wrought by the era's logging techniques.
