Wildfire Hazard
Unstable weather conditions continue to bring scattered or frequent showers and risk of thunderstorms, keeping the wildfire hazard at LOW for the Edson Forest Area (EFA).
Even though conditions are wet, wildfires can still start. Please continue to do your part to prevent wildfires this weekend.

The Junior Forest Rangers have arrived!
The Edson Forest Area is hosting two Junior Forest Ranger (JFR) crews this year. One crew is staying at the Cache Percotte Forest just south of Hinton and the other crew is staying at our secondary fire base just south of Grande Cache.
