Got it. How easy is it for context to be lost in words??

NOBODY understands me, and yet I can be amazingly eloquent when allowed to speak. You hear far differently to how you read. This is something around 99% of folk on this forum need to learn, and I'll bet none of them does, including me.

Do the Wajarri mind if you climb it?

The area including Mt Augustus is a gazetted National Park and is only known as Burringurrah by the Local Wajjari Aboriginal people , as far as i know there is no significant or cultural aspect to the Monolith . No problem in climbing it and is encouraged .

The difference is as far as i know is a Monolith is made up of multiple rock types and not just one rock type like Ayres Rock / Ularu .

Love a bit of people power. Congrats to the Anangu!

There are lots of places you can't go in Australia. Some views you would love to see but don't even know exist, or existed. And if you did, you wouldn't be allowed in anyway - certainly not en masse!

Vast swathes of land are shut off for military, mining or otherwise private use.

And yet some of you seem to be ****ed off that a small group of indiginous people have effected a tiny win for their community.

You can still go to Uluru, it is not getting blown up for extraction ffs!

Now you lot have been & gone & done it.


See what you've done.

Selfish barstewards.

I see the Rangers in the images have all the climbing gear on but what were they going to anchor themselves to now all the infrastructure has gone? POSERS!

I'm not saying what I think of that last prediction. Educated people are free to guess.

Nuts to that.

Can the Anangu still climb it?

People moan and convulse about "racism" and yet continue to champion it. Or is being Australian now selective?

I wonder how long before some sort of "Compensation" issue raises its head?

I see the mobs in SEQLD are now wanting the same for the glasshouse mountains.
