Reply To: Climbing on CALM land – Stathams – Mar 19 2006

Interesting set of points.

Fear mongering about what can go wrong will not solve the dilemma. CALM already made it quite clear that the status quo is not acceptable.

The question is not ‘will there be regulations on climbing on CALM land?’ it is ‘what will those regulations be?’

My suggestion is that we come up with something ourselves that serves the needs of the majority of WA Climbers and that gives CALM a way of ‘hand balling’ the responsibility to us.

A head in the sand approach that fails to address the pertinent issues will only serve to leave us at the hands of a minority.
