Harrison Lake Wildfire

This fire is suspected to be human caused, and preventable. The area has an extreme fire danger rating. The fire is approximately 45 hectares in size, and is burning in slash and brush and producing heavy smoke. Wind in the area has fanned this aggressively burning ground fire. The wind is blowing sparks and embers ahead of the fire, and the fire’s activity is challenging the air tanker work.

Campfires and open fire are prohibited throughout most of the Coastal Fire Centre, with the exception of the North Island-Central Coast Natural Resource District, Haida Gwaii and the “Fog Zone”. People are urged to take extreme caution when in the forest to ensure they do not provide a spark to start a wildfire. 

To report a wildfire, call *5555 on a cellphone or 1 800 663-5555 toll-free.
