Firefighters were last night hoping to fully contain Northland's biggest fire so far this summer before the forecast onset of extreme fire conditions this weekend.
As of yesterday the Pipiwai Rd fire had razed just under 180ha of young pine forest. It was being fought by six helicopters using monsoon buckets and about 65 forestry and Department of Conservation workers on the ground.
Three bulldozers and two diggers were cutting fire breaks around the perimeter.

Firefighters are battling to control a massive 130ha wildfire in pine forest south of Kawakawa before forecast high winds hit later today.
The blaze started about 3.30pm on Thursday on Pipiwai Rd, between James Rd and Lovatt Rd, about midway between Whangārei and Kaikohe.
Seven helicopters got to work at first light this morning using monsoon buckets with 70 forestry contractors from around the North helping firefighters on the ground.
A huge column of smoke can be seen from many kilometres away.
