Just to be clear, it's a moratorium on placing fixed gear above 500m, not on new route development. The two are not synonymous. I just checked that I did say this in the OP but it's worth restating.
If there's something that indicates the point of the moratorium, it's that the 500m line sits (probably) just above Eureka Wall so the line of crags high on the Vic Range, inclding Eureka Towers, would be included. |
