Sitkum Creek Fire

July 4, 2015

It is believed that this fire started as a result of the lightning storms we've been experiencing.

The fire is North of Nelson aprox 7 miles (Aprox 12 km) from the city of Nelson. We live in the opposite direction... Folks In that area have been on evacuation notice since. The fire has been pushed back away from residences and is still burning. Last we heard it was reported to be over 380 hectares. It is very scary for those involved.

So far no reports of injuries and we ourselves are safe.

The photos I have chosen to share are taken by others and are incredible shots!

This one was posted by the TMTV news and there is no photo credit

 

 

These last were taken by a friend, Madeline Guenette

 

 

 

We are very thankful for the tireless efforts of the firefighters and all emergency personnel involved.

Let them be safe....
