Crews will continue to battle fire burning near Holbein into Monday
A mixture of bulldozers, helicopters, air tankers and over 60 personnel continue to work on a wildfire burning west of Prince Albert, known as the Rally fire.
The blaze broke out Saturday evening south of the village of Holbein, approximately 30 kilometres west of the city.
Steve Roberts with Wildfire Management said crews have machine guards with bulldozers on the north flank of the fire and down most of the east and west sides down to the North Saskatchewan River.
“As soon as it cools off in the evening and the fire behaviour drops right down … they are going to push those lines straight south and look to use the river as their southern guard,” Roberts told paNOW.
