Smoke from Interior Forest Fires Affects Denman Island

environment · 2018 · Denman Island

Smoke from forest fires in the Interior became a regular summer feature in 2018, with smoke driving many visitors to Denman Island, benefiting the Saturday Market.

This is the archive, not the newspaper. Between 2018 and 2026 this site compiled these items automatically from public community sources — chiefly The Islands Grapevine, regional news feeds and community groups. They were not written by a reporter and were not held to the standards this publication now applies. The archive is kept because it is a useful dated record of what happened on Denman, and it is labelled because pretending otherwise would be the first thing we would tell you not to trust. Current reporting is at The Denman Firestarter.
