ethic
- No bolts - trad climbing only.
- Blue Lake and other glacial lake catchments are of very high conservation value and impacts upon these values need to be controlled
- The Park is currently closing and rehabilitating several non-hardened footpads within the catchment.
- Foot pads/ tracks that are not hardened (“official”) should be not be followed and walkers/ climbers should spread out to prevent track formation and subsequent erosion
- Upon leaving official/ hardened walks visitors should spread out and follow leave no trace principles.
- Camping is not permitted within 30m of any water body or water course.
