yes they did bulldoze this god awfull swath. This was done on the fri night, in the dark, and they were going to burn on monday, but with many calls to fire command and asking why burn there, and the event of some rain they didnt burn,.. They actually went through private property as they, the powers to be didnt know where the park actually started.
In the last fires they went though our property and did circles with the dozer. - why- because they can!

Some one in a high place that is invoved with one of the organisations in the Grampians has said, that the only good national park is a black one- this person is against the park, would just love to have farm land everywhere, no trees, no access to rock, nothing.
Its a sad place at present. Many animals are displaced, even if they survived the fires their habitats have been destroyed
