Locals blockade Baillieu’s vandalism of iconic Yarra Valley mountain
Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on Mon, 04/06/2012 - 3:30pmLocal residents and environmentalists have this morning (4th June) blockaded the Baillieu government’s logging of the Yarra Valley’s most iconic mountain, Mt St Leonard.
Last week, the Baillieu government’s logging company VicForests sent bulldozers in to Mt St Leonard, one of the most controversial logging locations of recent years. Logging on the side of Mt St Leonard can be viewed from as far away as Kinglake and has residents who survived the 2009 fires fuming.
