Are you kidding me!!! As bush fires spread south and focused west of Sydney, it left in its wake utter destruction and a scared landscape of what was typically near temperate rainforest! Very sad as this a region I pass through to chase or I chase in the area itself. The vast wilderness of the Wollemi would also have faced utmost devastation to both flora and fauna!
