Wildfire context for Squamish-Lillooet Regional District
The Squamish-Lillooet region spans coastal forest, dry Interior valleys, steep mountain terrain, Indigenous communities, rural properties, hydro infrastructure, recreation areas, and the long Highway 99 corridor. Fire and smoke conditions can be completely different between Squamish, Whistler, Pemberton, and Lillooet while all fall within the broader district.
Why this place-level view is useful
A district page gives rural and corridor users a wider view without flattening distinct community conditions. FireRadar provides official wildfire context while the regional district, local governments, First Nations, and province remain responsible for emergency alerts, closures, and operational guidance.
Smoke forecast and air quality
Wildfire smoke forecast and measured air-quality information answer different questions. FireRadar keeps ECCC forecast smoke and AQHI observations separate so a model forecast is not presented as a local air-quality measurement.
Official wildfire source for British Columbia
Official incident markers come from the BC Wildfire Service feed. Marker locations are informational and do not replace official emergency notices or local emergency instructions.
Emergency, closure, and travel information
FireRadar is an informational wildfire map. It does not issue evacuation instructions, park closures, road closures, travel advisories, fire bans, campground or trail status, or fire-spread predictions. Follow the applicable provincial, territorial, municipal, Indigenous, parks, transportation, and emergency authorities for operational decisions.
