Hi Kevin
I was there at Booroomba that day as well along with a pack of ANU ratbags. TS was doing some overhanging monster roof thing up near Hermes. I think John Allen was climbing with him at the time. Strong team! I remember him yelling down from the crux -"finger locks or wooden box".

Rod, there's always the chance that they were giving you the opportunity to not get a beauractratic 'NO' answer.... a pretty good chance....

That may be their inention ? ie, they might not actually care, but would prefer not to have to 'enforce' any regulations, or go through the rigmarole of any approvals.
