University of British Columbia Okanagan geography student Jenna Taylor went home last month to spend time with her family in Flin Flon, Man.

A relaxing break did not ensue. Taylor and her family would join thousands of evacuees on May 27, fleeing wildfires that prompted a provincewide state of emergency and spread to less than one kilometre from their home.
