The Saskatchewan government has lifted its ban on open fires in most provincial parks, a week and a half after it was imposed.
Recent rainfall in many areas prompted the change, which applies to all Crown land south of the Churchill River, according to a note from the Minister of Environment Friday.
Campfire restrictions remain in place in some parks due to continuing dry conditions, however:
- Saskatchewan Landing.
- Pike Lake.
- Blackstrap.
- Great Blue Heron.
- Candle Lake.
- The Battlefords.
- Narrow Hills.
The fire ban for Prince Albert National Park remains in place.
