The Teepee Creek wildfire perimeter has not seen any growth since the County of Grande Prairie’s last update.
Crews have identified numerous hotspots in the centre of the blaze, causing visible smoke in the area. Wildfighter personnel will continue reinforcing the perimeter established early this morning.
Checkpoints are in place and residents are reminded to contact the county’s call centre at 1-(825)-606-5166 to determine if it is safe to enter.
The evacuation order in the areas of Kleskun Creek North to Township Road 742 and the Riverstone Golf Course remains in effect and is being actively enforced by the RCMP.
Good news out of Valhalla as the blaze that started 13 kilometres northwest of the hamlet has been classified as being held for a number of days. The county says mopping up will fall on Alberta Wildfire as county crews have been pulled from the operation.
No further updates will be issued regarding the Valhalla wildfire.
