Know Before you go!

First Response Tourism:

Due to the recent rain, floods and mudslides some areas of the Interior are on evacuation alert, evacuation orders, or are preparing to leave if necessary. Once again, it is a challenging time to travel for recreation to the Gold Country Region/Interior. Many highways, and back roads are closed due restrictions from the 2021 wildfire season, and now due to flooding and landslides.

Follow our Social Media platforms for the #GoldCountryRoadReport and links to Drive BC and weather updates.

Please #KnowBeforeYouGo. Keep current with all travel advisories and be prepared. We are also now entering the winter season. Be prepared for winter driving conditions and check out the Gold Country winter ready check list!
