They're keeping control last couple days on some of the fires, weather has been cooperating with lack of wind, the Gustafson fire closest to me is now 15% contained, still around 5000ha. They are doing controlled burns here to protect the town and mills and in 150 Mile House. Slight rain is expected next week. I sure hope so!
They had to evacuate lots of people down the logging roads where my property is, through about 70km of rough roads, as the hwy is closed due to the fire, had to put calcium chloride down, the dust was horrendous, they did a great job getting people out. I feel less stress knowing the majority of people are out of this area (including my Mom and Brother which both live closer to 100 Mile), if I need to go (I hope it won't come to that) there won't be much trouble.
