The dashed outline is FireRadar's curated regional counting extent. Incident points, smoke forecasts, and AQHI observations are separate datasets and should not be interpreted as evacuation boundaries or fire-spread predictions. FireRadar regional extents may overlap near transition areas. Regional totals are useful local summaries and must not be added together to produce a province total.
Regional context
Wildfire context across Churchill River
The Churchill River region contains interconnected lakes and waterways, extensive boreal forest, Indigenous and Métis communities, remote highways, mining and resource activity, and wilderness recreation. Fire impacts may be separated by large water and forest distances yet still affect road and air access, traditional land use, community services, tourism, and smoke across the broader river system.
