updated an area at Barden Ridge. • discussed 3 years ago

Updated 1 area.

Updated the area Barden Ridge.

Changed name from 'Barden Ridge CLOSED' to 'Barden Ridge'.

Updated beta description.
Barden Ridge is another This area is CLOSED due to new restrictions imposed by the Sutherland Shire Council stating that " The features that make a good climbing crag are also the characteristics of a good Aboriginal shelter. A good shelter provides protection from the elements and is dry when it rains. A level earthen floor makes for a comfortable place to sleep. If the sandstone surfaces are hard and not crumbly then it will be more suitable for artwork and hand stencils." This is the law, failure to follow these laws will only result in more crags being closed.

Shire Suburban crag fest with a dozen middle grade micro routes. This crag has one one minute access from your car and great views. Watch out for snakes in summer. This joint has been climbed on for many years and I first visited in 1987. Many routes were bolted by Barnesy but they have probably already been done, just as the all those recent routes on the Right end.

Hey mate, just wondering why this went from being closed and preserving Indigenous heritage to be re-opened? I've seen this happen with a few Shire crags when scrolling through all the comments - just wondering what it all means.
