Two 바카라women fight to save camp coorong and ancient craft in West Coast National Park
Updated
A number of women who were camping out at a remote South Australian campground have been rescued from water in the rain.
The group of about 40 people took shelter in the coorong region of West Coast National Park on Wednesday night after coming across some of the strongest rainfall that the region has experienced in years, with some communities reporting up to two foot-falls.
The weather conditions have prompted people in many towns to close schools and send their pupils to school on Friday.
The campground at Hulman Pass 온카지노in the national park has been under severe weather warnings since Thursday and as of Friday afternoon there was some slight flash flooding.
Coyote Ranger Ryan Dutton told 774 ABC Adelaide campers had already gone home as the weather turned worse and they did not think they would be able to make it to the remote campground again.
«It’s been extremely wet for the last two days, about two or three feet of rain in the coorong at a time,» Mr Dutton said.
«Most people, from all four of us, have packed up everything we could find and left, except for one.
«We’re all so excited about it, it’s been incredible. But it’s not over yet.
«There is still water down there, and it’s pretty dangerous.»
The park is also facing major concerns from police, who have begun to check the safety and wellbeing of the campground and people with pets, and are reminding campers not to take them pets into the campground.

Campers on the main road to the campground, including the men’s area, were told that the area would be shut to vehicles after heavy rain and lightning strikes in several places.
A large area of Hulman Pass was shut down by police and was later reopened.
The park rangers will now visit the area on Friday to conduct another sweep, which will be made up of officers from the Western Australian Police Service, the State EmergCDC 철도청 카지노ency Service and the park’s emergency response team, to determine exactly how much the rain was worth.
