Legitimising climbing in NSW National Parks? 6-Dec-2012 At 4:52:51 PM kuu
Message
Thanks Adam, I hadn't seen that document. I've scaled back my involvement in climbing access issues. One of the early statements in the document (pasted below) is heartening although it is of course qualified in subsequent pages.

****************
Background
Rock climbing activities are recognised as a legitimate use of QPWS managed areas and the natural settings offered by parks are integral to the climbing experience. While climbing activities have some inherent risks, the challenge associated with undertaking these in the natural environment form an important part of the recreational opportunities provided in QPWS managed areas

****************
This contrasts with the general situation in NSW where climbing is not allowed unless permitted by the Plan of Management (for a specific park) or authorised in writing by the Director General. Requests for such authorisation are not usually successful.
