With evacuation alerts in TaTa Creek, St. Mary Valley, Kimberley needs to be prepared; Fire Chief.

After a weekend of heavy smoke and ash falling in Kimberley, the fire situation surrounding Kimberley and throughout the Southeast Fire Centre remains busy.

Weather front moving through area sparks fires including in Syringa Provincial Park and Valhalla.

The Kimberley Nature Park Society has published the fifth edition of its popular guide to the trails and natural features of BC’s largest municipal park. The cover of the new edition of the trail guide features a pine marten photo taken in the nature park by local wildlife photographer Larry Tooze. The guide includes an updated map showing a number of new trails, and the overall look and feel has been simplified with a cleaner, less-cluttered approach.

Fires burning across West Kootenay include Syringa Provincial Park and Valhalla.
