Firefighters battling the wildfire have been praised for their efforts in the Pigeon Valley blaze, which has been burning since Tuesday.

Sisxi: Those crews are doing an amazing job in rough conditions. Jak Roberts: For all the many people who are working so hard to beat this inferno back – heroic effort. ptcruiser: What champions you fellas are . . . what would we do without your wonderful help.

Nohopai: The thing to remember is that all these vollys have jobs. Their workplaces are short handed and some will be taking annual leave or leave without pay to fight this fire. The back bone of the fire service. Great job fellas.
