“I never saw either end of the fire,” says Healey, who’s in the middle of a two-week stint managing what is. At 5,500 square kilometres, it is almost as big as Prince Edward Island.
The service is using controlled burns to steer the fire toward rivers, lakes, areas that have burned in previous years or patches of deciduous trees that are less flammable than the conifers prevalent throughout the boreal forest, Healey says. An update from the wildfire service says tackling such a large blaze means “monitoring” the fire where it’s not threatening communities and infrastructure.
