Post-wildfire recovery continues in areas of Rose Valley Regional Park.
A Regional District Central Okanagan (RDCO) media release states that salvage harvesting operations are being done over the next few weeks in the northern section of the park. This work will maximize the value of burnt trees, remove tree hazards and allow for restoration through future replanting.

Operations will move to the southern portion of the park once the current work is completed. This will require a part of the park that reopened in December 2024 to be closed for public safety.
Rose Valley Regional Park was damaged during the McDougall Creek wildfire in 2023 and closed for 16 months. Much of the park remains closed to visitors.
