The highway is highlighted in orange. Wildfires, recently extinguished fires, smoke and AQHI each have their own source. The map does not determine whether the highway is safe to travel.
Check Environment Canada warnings and DriveBC before travel. If official visibility, snowfall or road-surface information is missing, FireRadar leaves it unavailable.
Environment Canada warnings →The section below combines official wildfire information with available Environment Canada weather. It is context only, not a fire-spread forecast or travel-safety score.
View fire danger →Road reports and cameras update on different schedules. Each timestamp is shown with its source. Missing information remains unavailable and is never shown as zero.
FireRadar methodology →Environment Canada weather and nearby wildfire information are shown separately from the road status. Always check the transportation authority before travel.
No Environment Canada weather alert currently overlaps this corridor area. This does not guarantee safe road conditions.
Distances are measured to a representative corridor line. They do not predict fire spread or determine whether the road is safe or open.
