    I think my nephew is at Ruth Lake lodge. He works in the kitchen for Clean Habours.

    Hmmm, almost. I think it's the old Woolco/Woolworths warehouse. About ten years ago I used to get loads of juice out of there.

    Hopefully it doesn't get that far up. Worst part is there's only 1 road in/out up there and 63 turns to winter road a ways past Fort Hills. Just lucky pretty much every site up there has its own airstrip.

    That's pretty much the end of the East Athabasca Highway. Really hope the fire doesn't travel that far east.
