Wildfire context for Barachois Pond Provincial Park
Barachois Pond is a forested western Newfoundland park with campgrounds, hiking, lakes and direct Trans-Canada Highway access. Conditions can vary across this protected area. The nearest official incident may be outside the named area, and smoke can travel long distances. FireRadar shows wildfire, smoke and fire-weather information separately.
Smoke forecast, air quality and fire weather
Smoke forecasts, measured AQHI and Fire Danger ratings describe different conditions. FireRadar shows each separately so one is not mistaken for another.
Official wildfire source for Newfoundland and Labrador
Official wildfire records come from the provincial Forestry and Agrifoods public data. Status, cause, dates, and size are displayed only when the source supplies usable values.
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.
