On Friday evening, two team members arrived at Caldons, Glentrool, in preparation for the early morning start setting up the Bruce's Crown Race. On arrival, they could see the orange glow of wildfire toward Buchan Ridge. They drove to Bruce's Stone car park to try and get a better view of the fire's location. They noticed a few cars parked at Bruce's Stone and immediately became concerned about wild campers in the area. They still could not determine where the fire was, so they drove to Culsharg Bothy. On arrival, they could view the full extent of the fire and location. At this point, they alerted the team leader, who alerted the emergency services and expressed concern about possible campers in the area. At 0020hrs a full team callout was put out. The team arrived at Stroan Bridge to meet with police and fire personnel. The police relocated the RV to Glentrool Hive. At the RV, police and a GMRT Incident Manager inquired about the campers' location. Police obtained phone number and sent out phone finds. At approximately 3:30 am, a phone find located two campers north of Little Spear. A hill party deployed and made its way up Kirriereoch to pick up the campers on Little Spear. They were both safely located and evacuated from the hill. While this was happening, Rescue 199 from Prestwick located campers in the Loch Valley region and got them to safety. The last remaining campers were located around 10am not far from Bruce's Stone. During the day team members assisted using the team drone to assess different areas. At 330pm new information from FLS staff confirmed that the fire was spreading north quickly toward Loch Doon and had also moved to the south of Loch Dee. Team members assisted police officers alerting residents and campers in the Loch Doon and Clatteringshaws areas, advising them about the fire. Our control vehicle was also deployed to Loch Doon to assist the police and also act as spotters overnight. All team members were safely home by 4:00 a.m. this morning. We would urged anyone heading to the hills over the next week to take care and avoid lighting camp fires or using naked flames. It's an exceptionally dry period of weather we have been having and for the next week it is going to be very dry as well.

Josh Dury captured the eclipse leading to a total obscuration from Castle Stalker in Argyl, Scotland, 14 March 2025. The UK experienced a lunar eclipse Friday (14 March). The event began in the early morning hours, with the partial phase starting at 5:09am. Most viewers in the UK experienced a partial eclipse as the Moon set below the horizon. However, Josh Dury says he shot captured a total obscuration from Scotland. His pictures were taken between 5:09am and 6:30am at Castle Stalker in Argyll. He says: "Totality refers to the moment when the Moon is totally eclipsed by the Earth shadow. Fortunately clear skies here in Scotland allowed us a window of 15 minutes to observe the event, which was so lucky."
