Thought I share this. I am a member of Friends of Wabakimi, but believe this is open to all.

Presented by Shannon Lawr, Wabakimi Park Superintendent and FOW Pres. Vern Fish.
Vern: “Are you prepared to deal with a wilderness fire? The summer of 2023 was dominated by reports of wildfire all over North American. These news stories became a little too personal when my paddling party was surrounded by fire in the heart of Wabakimi Provincial Park. This was the first time that I had ever been chased out of the wilderness by a fire. I will share a few things I learned about how to prepare and react. Finally learn more about the impact of fire on the park and how the park staff are dealing with the changes with the help of the Friends of Wabakimi.”
