One of the most iconic beautiful mountain towns in the world is no more. Gone up in smoke. Extremely upsetting news. Jasper Park Lodge iconic world wide lodge gone. Maligne Lake Lodge gone, Townsite gone. The whole town and park was evacuated a few days ago. God knows how they got backcountry hikers and campers out. I just can't believe it! The fire reach the town last night and it would seem it has done critical damage. They had to evacuate the fire fighters as the fire and smoke was that bad. Terrible news to wake up to. Could happen to Banff / Canmore area very easily as all around those town are massive amounts of fuel on the ground ready to burn. Just waiting for a match from mother nature.
