    Jasper is on fire!

    I’m shocked that they are letting people in so soon. The water is still not potable, streets are barricaded off with what appears to be improperly installed fencing. There are many hazards present. Large trees are still on buildings. There is no gas stations operating, no groceries, no hotels...
