High waters on the Fraser River have caused at least one Fort 91原创 campground to temporarily shut down and a portion of the Fort-to-Fort Trail has been closed due to flooding.

Metro Vancouver is also sending a warning to dog owners about keeping their pets from playing in the fast flowing waterway.

Metro Vancouver Parks Edgewater Bar campground is closed temporarily due to the high water level of the Fraser River. According to Metro鈥檚 website, the campground will reopen once the floodwater has receded and clean-up is complete.

Access to Derby Reach Park鈥檚 dog off-leash area from the river trail is also closed due to high waters.

The off-leash area can be accessed via Allard Crescent but dog owners are advised to keep their pets out of the fast flowing river at this time because the animals can easily be swept away.

Brae Island鈥檚 trails are closed but the Fort 91原创 campground is still open, said Metro Vancouver operations supervisor Roger Bean.

Some Glen Valley trails are closed as well, said Bean.

鈥淔or the most part our parks are fairly water resistant,鈥� said Bean.

At least 40 homes in Chilliwack had to be evacuated this week because the Fraser River waters were rising too high. Water levels aren鈥檛 going to be as high as expected. The last time the Fraser River rose this high was in 2007.
