After more than 50 days of large fires in the landscape, emergency crews have now contained the Grampians – Wallaby Track and Little Desert fires that started almost two weeks ago.
The fires were ignited by dry lightning on 27 January and ended up burning 95,000 hectares in the Little Desert region and 59,000 hectares in the Grampians Wallaby Rocks section.
The CFA have taken to social media to say they appreciate the hard work of all emergency service personnel involved.
They have also thanked the community for their collaboration, saying working together is pivotal to response and recovery efforts.
