PG area moose/deer/bear/elk

[jeremy84]

I am heading to PG to visit some family and to do some hunting. I'm curious as to the wildfire situation in that area. I know of the Tatuk lake fire, is it under control?? are there any closures in the area?
Also where is a good place to set up a base camp? Any info would be greatly appreciated.
thanks

You might want to check out the BC Wildfire map. Would not hurt to give them a call .

Ill be heading up this Friday to 7-12 first to check out a few spots I was looking at via google earth. I've checked the bc wildfire maps and it looks as though the Finger-Tatuk lake fire is still spreading. Does anyone know what the road conditions are like and the smoke situation?

Went into 7-17 / 7-18 on Sunday on the Quad for a look around , Grouse everywhere and lots of moose camps in there on the Pass Lake road , no moose hanging in any camps , Talked to a few hunters and they said moose were not yet answering a call so not quite yet into the rut , few cows were spotted but no Bulls , There is a good sized Logging camp on the Upper Torpy road so lots of logging activity during the week , was quite smokey there on Sunday but probably cleared up by now . hope this helps .

Thanks Machinist, that is helpful. I'm not too sure if ill head that far east or if ill end up going north?

There is an Active fire North West of PG in the Great Beaver Lake area , seems like most of the fire activity is in that general direction from PG , FYI , it was -1 here this morning really frosty Sun and clouds today , really looks like Fall out there
