Access all areas closed!

Top: the road home; through the cut-out, down to the creek, across the causeway and on up the hill. Three weeks after Larry, with the help of 8 SES persons and after 7 hours with a number of chainsaws operating, this road was re -opened to foot traffic only. It was another 3 weeks after this before we could drive home. The road was totally lost, and required a complete re-build.

Middle: just a glimpse of the conditions which greet us all over the property, this was once an open track. All access over the property is now closed such as the track to the top of the hill, reduced to an impenetrable tangle of debris. Many hours on the chainsaw will be required to re-open such tracks.

Bottom: the main road on the property, left and on up to the main house, right to leave the property.
