The Lake George wildfire is still out of control. Despite hot, dry, windy weather, crews were successful yesterday in preventing growth beyond the current estimate of 288 hectares. They have the same goal today in the face of these challenging conditions.
No structures lost to date, crews continue working hard to protect them. Resources available include 62 DNR, 39 BC and 23 local firefighters, 2 Newfoundland and 4 NWT planes, 1 DNR and 5 contracted helicopters, and 30 pieces of heavy equipment.
Work continues on fire breaks and avoiding growth. Not all resources are necessarily working at all times. For example, sometimes the airspace is dedicated to helicopters doing precision water drops that support specific tactics on the ground. Next update around midday tomorrow.
