National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) repairs jetty track on Barunguba Montague Island, Australia, from August 12-16. The 1800s track, damaged by 2021-2022 rain events, serves as primary access for the island's 90+ bird species, seals, and 10,000 annual visitors. Funded by NSW government's flood recovery program, helicopter operations transport materials due to remote, rugged terrain, with island closure during repairs.
