Who is being over-zealous? Do the maths? How many documented routes are now unavailable to climbers because land has been given BACK to Aboriginal communities? Ten? Twenty? One hundred? How many documented climbs are there in Australia? Thousands and thousands. How many more climbs are out there waiting first ascents? Thousands and thousands. So, who is being over-zealous and small minded? It's certainly not the Aboriginal community! Get real climbers and try to show a bit of generosity. Maybe even get involved with your local indigenous community and offer to take young Koori's on a learn to climb weekend. How great would it be to have future Aboriginal elders understanding what a deep connection we climbers have with the landscape? Now that would be a win - win situation; but it would depend crucially on climbers being open, fair minded and having a vision which extends beyond the next climb. |
