A bird’s-eye view of Williams Lake courtesy of Frontline Helicopters reveals the natural beauty surrounding the lakecity, including its heavily forested borders. The government has issued fire bans to protect forested communities like Williams Lake as the fire risk escalates to extreme in many areas of the province.
Hot temperatures lead to open fire ban Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Drier than normal conditions and elevated fire danger ratings have resulted in an open fire ban in the Cariboo. As the ban went into effect Thursday, communication
specialist Emily Epp said the downpours on Monday and Tuesday helped lower the fire danger rating, however, with the longterm forecast of warmer conditions, it is anticipated the danger ratings will climb again. “I think a campfire ban will
be coming soon, it might even be this weekend,” Epp said. As of Monday, lightning sparked eight wildfires in the region. Four are out, two are in patrol and two small fires, 10 by 10 metres, are still active — one north east of Alkali Lake and
one just south of Farwell Canyon. The open fire ban remains in place until Sept. 30, 2015 unless the public is otherwise notified. To report a wildfire or an open burning violation call 1-800- 663-5555 or *55555 on a cell phone.
