My fire escape plan is not to go camping during the heat in the first place - certainly not in the forest.

My bias goes back to my upbringing - I grew up in a stinking hot area (South of the Murray in SA), and have spent the rest of my life getting away from it.

But a fire escape plan is very important - and vital to it is keeping well-updated about the weather and latest fire risks.

In this regard, it'll be interesting to see what the wash-up is from the Victorian Bushfires Royal Commission.

You're right keveny6. Although I went on a couple of short sorties to test out my list, my new gear and procedures. My aim was to test myself (& the gear out) in winter conditions (rain, etc) and be comfortable.

For me, the extremes of summer are even worse - there's no way I'd go camping in a big forest in peak bushfire season!

Hi gang i brought padded roof lining for my bus and this done the trick as i don't have condensation problems now .so i brought a 30 metre roll of car interior lining and about to do my walls as well.My family said it looks like a professional job on the roof so hoping the walls turn out good also

Hi Brotell - most interested to note that you listed Ramco as one of your favourite places - I grew up south of Waikerie. You right - it's a great spot along there!
Best wishes - Topaz
