From the Cariboo Fire Centre:
There are currently multiple wildfires burning west of the Cariboo Fire Centre. Smoke originating from fires within the Prince George and Coastal Fire Centres may be visible throughout the Cariboo Fire Centre. None of the active wildfires are currently threatening communities or infrastructure, however the public should remain diligent and aware of wildfire activity.
Public and media are encouraged to monitor:
The FireSmoke Canada website for current smoke conditions,
The BC Wildfire Service public map for the current wildfire situation,
The Government of Canada's weather information and public alerts website for local alerts and special weather statements.
Human-caused wildfires are completely preventable and divert critical resources away from naturally caused fires. Always practice safe, responsible open fire use.
To report a wildfire, unattended campfire or open burning violation, call 1 800 663-5555 toll-free or *5555 on a cell phone.
