OK I assume that got your attention:
No one has mentioned it but what's the plan if it's a 'Severe' or 'Extreme' Fire Danger Rating over this weekend?
Don't want to be a party popper but I've been involved in a couple of wild fires and have no desire to ever repeat that.
Looks like it's an isolated entry with only one exit:
How clear/safe/fireproof in the camping area?
Is there any type of communications/monitoring of threats available?
Cheers

Our first Australia Day meet was in the middle of sever bush fires... we had the place to ourselves...

Yes but we still have to be careful. I'm sure Kris has a plan under control.

Thanks for bringing this up Jack.
I've been paying perticular attention to see what would happen if a severe fire came through and I am confident to say we would be safe in the valley but I can not guarantee that.
It is very green currently and there is predicted 100+mm of rain in the next week and a little more further on.
I have and will again mow everything very short especially around the fire place. I have also slashed a lot of grass further from the camp ground but didn't finish the job as I broke the slasher...LOL
I also have a fire fighting pump with 50m hose in case..
Unfortunatelly, there is only one way in/out to the top gate but from there, there are a number of roads out. Also being up high nearly right on top of Great Dividing range you get to see whats comming. I also have radio reception so we could get updates incase there is a fire.
If the Fire Danger is going to be severe or extreme I will call in to the Captains Falt station to let them know we are having a shindig and organise a UHF channel to monitor.
That should cover it...next...LOL
