Er ... don't think my company will be looking to take on a low budget high risk mess for the sake of the aesthetic appeal of a sandstone arch amongst other bad business reasons... swing and a miss buddy.

Though a couple of window cleaners with their own insurances might be more keen for grinding some bolts off... who can say?

I don't mind volunteering as a climber to help the local NPWS staff with some of the preliminary headaches though.

Over to you maestro.
