Effective immediately, the Cariboo Regional District has lifted the evacuation alert in the Haggen’s Point and Hen Ingram Lake areas along the south side of Quesnel Lake. The Quesnel Lake wildfire (C31678) is now 50 per cent contained and BC Wildfire Service crews are making good progress, which is why the evacuation alert is being lifted.

To ensure public safety, stay out of fire affected areas and obey all warning and hazard signs.
