Fire retardant drop

Batchelor Heights

Kamloops, B.C.

 

In all the years I've lived in Kamloops (about 25 years total), I've never seen a wildfire come so close to the city. There were 12 homes evacuated. These were about a mile from where I live and I took these photos from a parking lot across from my home. The initial moments, as high winds fanned up the flames, were terrifying. All is under control now though.
