Probably worth having this on your smart phone when you venture out in VK2 and may be all of VK. Just released by NSW Police Force.
Search for “Emergency +” in the Apple or Android stores. Its free.

Also relevant (as posted on the VK2 SOTA list by myself) - as we come into the main Bush Fire season is “Fires near me NSW”.
As many of our summits are either within forested areas or you have only one access and exit route via a forest road, Bush fires are something we need to keep an eye on. If you end up in the wrong place at the wrong time, there can be no escape.
