Top Spot!

Fire spotter Peter Skilbeck watches the new and upgraded cabin being craned into position atop Mount Tarrengower fire observation tower at Maldon yesterday.

It was a careful and precise operation as the new and upgraded fire observer’s cabin was craned into position atop Mount Tarrengower fire observation tower yesterday.
The positioning of the new, larger cabin was the long-anticipated highlight of the $1 million project, started back in June, to replace the old 1980s observation cabin in time for the start of the new fire season. Story in today’s Mail.
