"Tothill Range Fire"
On the evening of Saturday, 21st January 2006, a fire was started by lightening in the Tothill Ranges, north of the Tothill Gap.
Due to the terrain that it was in, the fire was difficult to fight and the prevailing weather conditions at the time did not assist fire fighters.
As a result of this fire fighters were assisted by helicopters on the Sunday.
Below is a selection of photos of the helicopters at the Robertstown oval landing, refuelling and taking off to return to the fire.
