The worst drought conditions are currently across Alberta and northeastern British Columbia and we do not expect any significant relief through the summer

Michel Creek, Coal Creek, Lizard Creek, Sand Creek, Kikomun Creek and Morrissey Creek and their tributaries will be closed

It is extremely dry out there this year. Even though campfires are still permitted, please make sure you keep them small and ensure they are fully extinguished (cool to the touch) before leaving them.

Please have a safe drive home following this especially wonderful holiday season.
