The waters of the Fraser River have stopped rising - for the time being.
As of Saturday morning, the river was showing a slow decline after peaking at 9.7 metres at the South Fort George gauge.
While the BC River Forecast Centre predicts a gradual recession over the next couple of days, the water level is expected to remain above nine metre for some time.
The river may also rise again as mountain snow melts through the remainder of June.
Meanwhile, the Nechako River is continuing its own, albeit slower, ascent.
According to the City of Prince George, there are no changes to current evacuation orders and alerts nor will any more gabion dikes be constructed over the next few days.
The Regional District of Fraser-Fort George remains at Level 1 of its Emergency Operations Centre but an evacuation alert was cancelled for six endangered homes in the Foreman Flats area.
Extreme caution near rivers and streams is still recommended as high-water flows can cause bank erosion and instability.
