In northern Alberta, firefighters continue to battle the Chuckegg Creek blaze, which covers approximately 127,000 hectares a few kilometres southwest of High Level, Alta. Almost 5,000 people from High Level and nearby First Nations have been out of their homes for a week since the areas were evacuated on May 20. The Chuckegg Creek wildfire burns in the High Level Forest Area, to the southwest and west of the town of High Level, Alta. Once you've spent the day on site, you're dirty, you're hot and you're tired and it's 38 degrees." Once they have located what they believe to be the general fire ignition area, investigators will get down on their hands and knees again and grid the area.
