The BC Wildfire Service has issued an area restriction order for the Bald Range wildfire, located approximately 15 kilometres west of Summerland. The order is scheduled to take effect at 12 p. m. on August 29 and will remain in place until September 12, or until the order is rescinded. The restriction aims to ensure firefighter safety and prevent public interference with suppression operations.

Discovered on the afternoon of August 7, the wildfire spread rapidly due to hot, dry, and windy conditions.

The fire destroyed approximately 150 structures and burned a total of 25,191 hectares before being reported as held.
