I'd agree.
There is a lot of proposals in the master plan including 'Hiker Lodges' at 9 different locations including Mt William, mt Rosea, Barbican Rocks, Pohlners Rd, Stayplton. Pg 48

Apparently private investment in National Parks is just what we need.

There seems to plenty of potential conflict with rock climbing areas at these locations and I am sure paying customers will get priority regarding the future of these area.

It's my understanding they will be seeking private investors to develop and manage these sites.

I am not sure the $375 a night high end guided hike includes the cost of accomodation at these sites.

To me the track is a great concept, but I am not sure high end hiker lodges are a welcome addition.
