Although there are bush fires still burning in the Nightcap National Park to the east of Nimbin and backburning continues to consolidate containment lines, for most of us life has been returning to normal. The advice is to still stay away from visiting the National Park for many weeks.

It is time to support the communities that were devastated by the recent Mount Nardi fires and you can do that by getting into towns and buying goods that put money into towns.
