Dargo DEPI Fire Support 2014

In January and February LifeAid deployed support teams to Dargo to support fire fighting activities north of the town in the Victorian high country. The LifeAid crews operated a base camp from the CFA Depot and then moved forward to the fire ground with the crews.

This fire fortunately didn't threaten many farms or people but was restricted to highly difficult terrain requiring a lot of arduous trekking in and out by fire crews

Approaching the fire ground

If you have to be on stand-by at the fire ground, there are worse places to be. It's also a reminder what the Fire Fighters are working so hard to save.
