Firefighters leave the scene of a wildfire in the Cairngorms after nearly five weeks of operations. Scottish Fire and Rescue Service (SFRS) crews withdraw from the area on Monday and complete their response work at the final affected site.
SFRS hands the last area over to the RSPB, which manages the land. The handover marks the end of firefighting activity in the incident area, though local recovery and monitoring responsibilities shift to the landowner.
Across the available reports, the core timeline and outcome are consistent: crews remain on site for close to five weeks, then depart on Monday and transfer responsibility for the affected ground to the RSPB. No other differing angles or additional developments are stated in the provided excerpts.
