Climbing banned Centennial Trev Blue Mtns - NPWS 6-May-2015 At 10:38:05 AM ClintR

Well this is a pretty frustrating read in my opinion, and yes I'm just another non-regular forum user posting my opinion but hell, we're all just climbers. This topic is obviously a clash of many different view points and opinions and the closure comes down to national parks but there are way too many personal motives going on here. Decisions are made and reversed, options change, policies are revised. To go out and chop bolts a week after this decision seems like a massive over-reaction and one that can only be driven by some self interest. The ban is in place. Climbing is not allowed. Everyone just leave it be. If you really care about minimising impact, let the dust settle. People care about both sides of this argument and no doubt there will be future lobbying in both directions. Drastic actions like this can only cause further damage and conflict between all parties involved. Disappointing to see to say the least.
