4th day of helicopters dumping water on the ridge that looks down on here. Chris, a neighbour works for National parks and mobile phones me from the front fire line as him and his co-workers back burn.
Thank you Chris, I am, and others, are very grateful for what you are doing.
A couple of spots of rain over night but I am not holding my breath for much more which would be ideal.
I walked the dis used state forest road this morning, which is now vehicle impassable so fire trucks from this side would be unable to reach the ridge where NIGHTCAP walking track runs.
