# The Cape Winelands District Municipality is still fighting several fires, including a major line above the Guano Caves outside Montagu. The municipal spokesperson Jo Anne Otto says strong winds pushed the fire across the R62, threatening structures. Crews from Cape Winelands, Langeberg Municipality, CapeNature, and other partners are actively protecting properties, with helicopters deployed. Heavy smoke affects the area, and the R62 remains closed:
