This is a page devoted to images and stories devoted to Uranium City and area today. Although, this site largely focuses on Uranium City’s storied (and tragic) history, it’s worth remembering that Uranium City, and the Athabasca region generally, remains a living community – as well as being one of the most beautiful regions of the planet. Hopefully, the images and stories recorded here will encourage people to explore further, and perhaps even visit. Thanks to all the talented photographers living in Uranium City who took these photos.

Smoke so bad over Uranium City on Friday the Rise Air sched flight had to turn back because it wasn’t safe to land. Hopefully, the flight can make it in on Monday.
(*_*) some fall colours creeping into the landscape,but at least it’s smoke free this morning:)

Harold Grasley quoting Louis Armstrong(*_*) Louis Armstrong;
I see skies of blue
And clouds of white
The bright blessed day
The dark sacred night
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
