Since noon on September 30, open burning has been permitted for yard clean-up in the Cariboo district. Rules still apply to size and control which can be found on the website, bcwildfire.ca. Other than the sporadic downpours in September, the rain has continued to bypass the area however heavy dew and even frost (just last night) moistens the ground and wooden structures to provide some protection for early-morning burning. This is often the only time of the day where we can count on little or no wind as well.
