The heat wave has caused officials in Jasper National Park to closely monitor the fire risk and high water levels.
On Thursday, Parks Canada sent an advisor to visitors and residents of the national park about the potential dangers of extreme heat, increased fire risk and high water levels.

A fire ban will go into effect in day-use areas, picnic sites and in the back-country Friday and fire crews are on high alert.
The high temperatures are also causing people to Jasper’s beaches, but park officials are warning that rivers and streams are flowing high and fast and could be dangerous.
There is also concern about the congestion happening around Lake Edith, Lake Annette, Jasper Lake and Pyramid Lake. Authorities are asking people to only park in designated spots because cars on grass are a recipe for a wildfire.
Jasper National Park is just one of many locations across the province where there are currently fire bans, restrictions or advisories.
