Total fire ban lifted; fire danger remains high

With the recent rainfall in Muskoka, local Fire Chiefs have lifted the total fire ban for the region. The Fire Danger Rating has now been set to HIGH.

The Chiefs thank the public for their cooperation and understanding during the total fire ban.

Extreme caution must still be taken with all open flames. Small fires are permitted in most rural areas of Muskoka keeping in mind that NO DAYTIME BURNING is allowed. You must have adequate tools and water to extinguish the fire if the need arises and you must be with your fire at all times. Consult with your local Fire Department for outdoor burning regulations in your municipality.
