Following a devastating wildfire that tore apart Jasper National Park, signs of healing have begun with part of the region re-opening.
Parks Canada announced that more fall and winter backcountry camping and activities will be allowed to resume, and Maligne Road will reopen on Friday.
Backcountry camping site reservations will be open for bookings starting at 2 p.m. MT on Oct. 11.
Jasper’s economy depends on tourists and Parks Canada said the federal government is committed to welcoming them back as it is appropriate to do so.
