I took a drive down to Penticton today. You will be happy to know that there is now pavement in the construction area. They are still working on the highway but the gravel is gone.

Due to 3 local MAJOR forest fires, the following roads are closed until further notice.

Hwy 97
- Both directions
- Closed just north of Peachland from Junction with HWY 97C to 4 km north at Gellatly Road because of Forest Fire. Last updated Jul 19 at 3pm.

Hwy 97c
- Both directions
- HWY 97C at Aspen Grove due to excessive smoke from the forest fire. Updated on Sat Jul 18 at 3:21 pm.

Westside road on alert.

I will update daily as things change.

Some house keeping things:

Friday Night Show

If you want to enter, you will have to be in Vernon extra early by 3:00. There is no cost to entering the show. The people coming from greater distances per the itinerary (ie. Vancouver and Calgary) are not planning to enter the show - however will walk down to catch the action.

Blackcomb

The fires here are pretty well out, there's no more evacuations or road closures.

One week and we will be on the road from Calgary! Can't wait to drive the 205 in the mountain roads and to see 3 others around me!

Getting excited now! Can't wait to hit the road tomorrow!

terrace and westbank fires are out??

im coming up sunday from vancouver

The connector is open as is highway 97. Westside road still remains closed due to forest fire hazard although some evacuees have been permitted to go home today.


Some interesting video of the fire.
