Description
4WD Firetrail to Blue Rag Trig Station.
This is a classic 4WD route in the Victorian High Country. This view is looking from the Blue Rag Tri station eastwards towards Mt Hotham in the distance to the left.
The image was taken almost a year after a wild bushfire swept through the region. As far as the eye can see, there snow gums have been burnt. Grass regrowth has started.
As far as I know, the fire trail in the centre of the image was rapidly graded in order to attempt to fight the 2013 fire which started by lightning some 50 kilomters to the north of this location (to the left). At one stage the fire front was estimated to be almost 400 kilometres in length and two persons were killed fighting the blaze.
Another image taken from just over the second rise was entered in the 2014 International Landscape Photograhs Competition.
