With Five Mile Road closure, floods, then covid, 6 mths later it is still stuck there! If anythin gleftover, maybe we could even get a roof sprinkler system installed?

22.01.2022 Lovely to see neighbours out on the street with candles for the rising of the dawn this ANZAC Day 2020. COVID-19 might be limiting our movement but not our abi...lity to pay tribute and to honor our fallen on this most special day of the calendar. Thank you to our local buglers for playing the last post which could be so poignantly heard throughout the valleys. May we be forever grateful and never forget the sacrifice of our service men and women, and that of their families and loved ones, for protecting our Country and way of life. #ANZACDay2020 See more

19.01.2022 Its been a busy day for the East Jindabyne Brigade. Heavy snow caught motorists off guard today between Jindabyne and Berridale. The Brigade assisted the RMS a...nd local tow trucks move approx 60 vehicles from the Kosciusko Rd that had become stuck. Youve earned yourselves a hot chocolate crew. Well done. See more

10.01.2022 Jenolan Caves - Five Mile Road Update Rain, fire or rock slides wont stop Transport for NSW crews from working flat out to re-open Five Mile Road. Re-opening the road is not an easy task, with crews having already removed 581 trees, replaced 2.5 km of guard rail and removed 970 tonnes of material.... Thank you to everyone for the patience. It is hoped this road can be reopened in the coming weeks.

09.01.2022 A busy weekend for the Jenolan Caves RFS crew who attended the Spartan Event in Oberon and assisted in safety, community education and of course, hosing down some of the contestants. A successful and fun weekend had by all.

06.01.2022 SNOW more overnight with powder snow still falling,

06.01.2022 Jenolan Caves Mudslide Overnight Last night we saw another mudslide occur on 5 Mile Hill - towards Jenolan Caves. This really illustrates the ongoing risk of saturated, unstable slopes. Transport for NSW is working around the clock assessing the damage and cleaning up the latest damage.

05.01.2022 Note 5mile closed from 13th July so cleanup of Blue Lake can start.

04.01.2022 Jenolan Caves remains temporarily closed, but making a remarkable recovery after fire and flood. The Grand Arch is just as majestic as ever, even more so by night. We (Oberon SES) delivered community donated items to Jenolan Caves RFS and then had the pleasure of a walk through the Arch with Barry Richard, Group Captain NSW RFS. 12/05/2020.
