There's some documentation there, but a lot of the climbs don't have names or dates associated with them (hmmmm, I wonder why... ). I'm onto the national parks people at the moment trying to discover when, where, and how the original decision to ban climbing was made. I know that Head Rangers have discretion over certain rules in the parks they particularly look after, but I'd like to know how it came about that climbing was banned in SHNP - the reasoning behind the banning may be flawed, or the circumstances may now have changed so that the original reasoning is no longer valid. Come to think of it, Greg Mortimer lives near North Head - anyone got his email address?
