Wow, that’s an incredible map. There’s no way to get that under control. Nature will have to do it with cooler temps, rain and snow.

In three weeks, we are supposed to head out on our car trip through Seattle, Vancouver, Whistler, the Okanogan Lake Region, Kamloops, Revelstoke, and over to Banff, Jasper, and Lake Louise. We may have to cancel if the smoke is blowing into BC.

We’ve got enough of our own smoke here in North Idaho from the nearby Ridge Creek fire that’s now up to 3,500 acres. They are hitting it every day with planes, heavy equipment, and 500 personnel. It’s still only 12% contained due to the really tough terrain and hot weather.

There’s a youtube channel called “Canadian Prepper”. He has been talking about these wildfires for a long long time. Of course he is quite dramatic and funny - a “we are all going to die” kind of guy.

But he lives up there and would know what’s going on. He has some interesting and knowledgeable videos if you can make it past the hyperbole. :-)
