Wednesday, 20 January
"The Grampians National Park is one of the worlds great rock-climbing and bouldering areas with thousands of classic sandstone routes spread across an extraordinary wilderness landscape. In a new draft management plan Parks Victoria (the land manager) is proposing to completely ban bouldering as an activity and only allow access to 22% of roped climbing areas.
