On your arrival to Snake Valley (or approaching from Ballarat), don't be alarmed if you see smoke in the sky.
The CFA has to do 3 burn-offs, but fortunately the CFA officer in charge of this event is Anthony (last years SVAA President), so as you can imagine, he is very aware of what the smoke could do to our sky.
All 3 burn-offs are North of Snake Valley, and the winds for all 4 days are southerlies, plus Camp is South of Snake Valley
The fires will be extinguished by late afternoon anyway.
He will be coming to Camp at night after the burn-offs, and he doesn't want the sky smoked up either.
