Today we are mourning the loss of one of our own. An Alberta Wildfire crew member was fatally injured yesterday while responding to the wildfire in Jasper. This morning we stood heartbroken with our partners as a procession passed by.

On Thursday evening our hearts broke.
Devyn Gale was an initial attack crew member out of the Columbia Fire Zone in Revelstoke.
She was a trusted colleague, a loving friend, a beloved sibling and a cherished daughter.
In the interest of public safety, BC Parks has proactively closed the Murtle Lake area and urges the public to abide by this closure. Please visit bcparks.ca/ for active advisories and to explore alternative destinations within Wells Gray Provincial Park.
