Moderate wildfire danger
The wildfire danger in the Rocky Mountain House forest area remains moderate. This means wildfires can start and spread, but are less likely to become severe if detected and responded to quickly. Continued rainfall, and snow in higher elevations, is helping to maintain moisture levels in vegetation and reduce the potential for wildfires to start.
Wildfire situation
There are currently no active wildfires in the Rocky Mountain House Forest Area.
See the Alberta Wildfire Status Dashboard for up-to-date information on wildfire locations, status, size, statistics and more.
Fire permits are required
From March 1 to October 31, a fire permit is required for all burning activities in the Forest Protection Area, excluding campfires. This includes fireworks and exploding targets, which require a permit year-round.
