Niblo Tutte Bouldering 52 vie in falesia

Cooleman Ridge

is CNP land, the Plan of Management can be found here. The entire reserve is classified as Zone 2, and will be managed to direct damaging activities to previously disturbed areas.

While recreation is considered a priority for Cooleman Ridge, care should be taken to avoid damage to the habitat of the vulnerable Pink-Tailed Worm-Lizard which likes the same areas we do.

Table 7.4: Bouldering - Best Practice:

- From the PoM:

• Do not create informal tracks or damage vegetation
• Do not move rocks or fallen branches
• Do not disturb plants and animals
• Keep group sizes small
• Be considerate of other users Take care of vegetation when placing mats for protection
• Brush any chalk off the rock with a soft bristled brush when you are finished
• Carry out all waste
• Respect regulations and closures.

Adherence to these practices should allow Cooleman Ridge to remain open and provide a low commitment bouldering area for those summer afternoons.
