There are guidelines, have been for ages; the bolsters were apparently made aware of this and continued anyway. So maybe 'actually following guidelines' is the way to go . . .
There was no point in destroying the pre-existing natural environment for a few lines . . .
I don't see why i am being singled out as being 'negative' when others are expressing the same view ...

Do you really think that all bushwalkers visit the place for a few minutes and never return? Or that climbers are the only ones to explore the area? Or that they have had no impact?
You might be surprised that many walkers go there many times over many years, and have done so for many decades, and probably for decades before you were born. Would you still be going there in a few years, 10 or 20 yrs? Would you have gone there if it wasn't bolted?
