Pickle Lake Wild Fire Continues to Grow

The forest fire burning 9-kilometres away from New Osnaburgh First Nation has grown in size.

The blaze is now over 78-thousand hectares in size and is not under control.

However, crews are doing a good job keeping it away from the community.

There are 17-active fires, 4 of which are not under control.
