I agree. We should also remove all fixed gear and abseil anchors, tear up and replant the campground/roads (with native species of course!), pull down the comms tower, power-lines, toilet block etc, which currently despoil the pristine Arapiles World Heritage area.

ps. Don't be racist against pine trees man. Just because they weren't born here, doesn't mean they can't contribute to our society (by providing shade).
