Smokey Sydney

Smoke fills the valley below

It’s smokey again today in the city, the bushfires around Sydney aren’t getting any better. Which reminds me, two weekends ago Jenn and I went up the mountains to go bushwalking, only to find all the trails closed due to blazing fires. In fact the whole Grose valley was closed, and many other surrounding areas…all the places I used to hike frequently ‘as a younger man’.

Dense smoke billows from the heart of the fire

The photos here were taken from the top of Govett’s Leap looking north toward Hat Hill Road and Perry’s Lookdown, which is where we had intended to go. It was going to be a lovely walk too, down Perry’s to Acacia Flats and the Bluegum Forest, but from the dense smoke billowing up from that area I’d say it will be a while before we’ll be doing that walk.
