The emu foot track closure has been on chockstone, cliffcare, the crag, I'm pretty sure it's in the most recent guidebook for Grampians and it was in the update PDF too. Park's road report lists it as closed.

What more do you want? A TV campaign?
Signs on the gate itself would be the most obvious, cheap, simple solution, but unfortunately, signs on gates seem to go walkabout for some reason, much like locked gates seem to end up magically unlocked, bypassed, smashed, etc. Another good example is the gate at the start of the Ravine track. |
