The CSRD asks the public to stay out of the Sicamous Creek Mobile Home Park area until the evacuation alert is rescinded.

Previously, the District of Sicamous issued an evacuation alert for the Sicamous Creek Mobile Home Park due to the threat of a landslide near Wiseman Creek in early May.

The CSRD directors did not support a proposal to conduct salvage logging in the Sicamous and Wiseman Creek watersheds due to the high risk of landslides following the Two Mile wildfire near Sicamous in summer 2021. The Sicamous Creek Mobile Home Park is located at the base of Wiseman Creek.
