Well - what did this block look like?

So glad you asked. It has a 10+ degrees slope, it was cleared to some extent at the top and thick with trees surrounded by a deep layer of Karri leaf and bark litter at the bottom.

What we did not know at the time of purchase was the extent and length of time it would take to clean the block up and make it as fire safe as possible.

For a few months though, it was left to it's own devices until my Mother passed away in March 2008.
