Whilst away with Neil this weekend we found it hard not to notice some inherent dangers around the Grampians. The main problem in our minds were the "dangerous undulations" with which the Grampians were riddled. Like a stair case without a hand rail these slopes could pose dangers beyond imagination. Whilst noting these problems we also saw cliffs that obviously have associated dangers that need to be rectified. Somthing must be done.

Im sure that with very little earth moving the dangerous topography of the Grampians could be converted to a safe tan bark/ shreaded rubber plain, lacking obstacle that may ruin a nice walk. A nice side affect to this renovation would be the rock and soil removed could be used to fill the vallys of the Blue Mountains and make another Australian icon safe for the masses.

Finally those forced to stay in the confines of their homes for fear of taking responsibility for their actions could again run free with out the risk of injury or death hanging over their heads.

safty first,
