This is awful ... have visited there twice and can't believe that half the town has been burned to the ground.

It's heartbreaking Haz. Such a beautiful place. I too have been there with some of my family. My sister lives in Alberta and she was crying yesterday morning at the devastation of Jasper.

Where does your sister live, Patsy?  

Horrific for all concerned.  I hope it wasn't some idiot started it as has happened before.

What about the poor animals, they don't know which way to run.  And the babies in the holes underground!  I remember seeing a firefighter pick up a little rabbit which was running around terrified not knowing where to go for safety.

She lives in Edmonton, Haz. She's visited Jasper quite a few times.

thought to have been started by lightning, ladybirder.

It's a well situated town but I don't recall it being unusually pretty. A lot of people will have no homes - just as well it's summer, you wouldn't want to be homeless in the Rockies in midwinter.

Thankfully no injuries or deaths reported.
