Homestead destroyed as major South Canterbury scrub fire burns for second day
Hi neighbours,
A large blaze burning through forestry in the Mackenzie District has destroyed a homestead as it continues to burn for a second day.
The fire has been burning since about 11.25am on Sunday after flaring up on a Twizel riverbed and spreading to a large forest on Mt Cook Rd.
It had grown to 2500 hectares and had a 23 kilometre perimeter by Sunday night.
The fire jumped Mt Cook Rd – State Highway 80 (SH80) – and is burning on both sides. SH80 and SH8 remain closed.

REDZONE DOGS - GROUP DOG WALKS
Hi guys,
I’ve started a Facebook group called Redzone Dogs. It’s a great community where we join and organise dog walks in and around the Redzone. It’s a great way to socialise your dog, feel safer when out and about late at night, and meet locals.
