Fire Information Officer Jessica Mack says the fire is on the east side of Soda Creek Road.
“That one is estimated to be about one hectare in size. Air tankers have actioned that fire and we do have aircraft and personnel that are working to suppress that fire right now.”
Mack says there are currently 70 active wildfires within the Cariboo.
That total includes 10 in both the Williams Lake and Quesnel fire zones, and 8 in the Chilcotin.
Most though, 42, are still within the 100 Mile House fire zone.

The Purdy Lake wildfire, south of Batnuni Lake, is now up 900 hectares in size.
Jessica Mack, a Fire Information Officer with the BC Wildfire Service, confirms that due to windier conditions that fire has been active, but she says it is burning away from the area on evacuation alert.
“It is moving in a more southerly direction and that is going into the Kluskoil Lake Park, and BC Parks has been engaged regarding suppression efforts in there. We have 27 firefighters and 9 pieces of heavy equipment that are working to suppress that fire right now.”
