Fire bans have been lifted at a range of territorial parks in the North Slave and South Slave, the NWT government announced on Friday after broader region-wide bans ended.
Bans across the entirety of the two regions were instituted on June 30 with a period of extreme fire weather forecast.
Those regional bans ended on Wednesday. NWT Parks followed that on Friday by lifting fire bans at just under a dozen of its parks, though restrictions at many other parks remain in place.
Fire bans were lifted on Friday at:
