Ku-ring-Gai Council has recently released a Draft Unstructured Recreation Strategy for public comment.

The Draft proposes that Lindfield Rocks and the cliff near Wahroonga Oval be categorised as "Designated Escarpments" for the activities of "rock climbing, bouldering and abseiling".

You can find the Draft Strategy on Council's website at:

http://www.kmc.nsw.gov.au/www/html/3922-unstructured-recreation-strategy.asp

Follow the link to the 2.18MB PDF file and take a look, specifically at Page 13.

Submissions close 16 September 2010.

Note: The Draft Strategy specifically warns/advises against using any Council infrastructure as an anchor point.
