Climb or not to climb, what was the question?
by Christopher Burns
(Australia)
TIS funny how cultural importance in the years changed.The current city of Ayers Rock (Uluru) have anticipated reviews over the last 15 years because of cultural interest and alleged fact, the only male oldest were allowed, to rock climbing rock climbing.
If this is the case why cited elders in many magazines and newspapers 20 years ago, and more than not worry whether the rock was in? there are more culturally significant areas around the rock, which since generations before taboo to white people, women and people have not local tribes, and these were clearly marked, documented, researched and closed off.
Why the change in attitude since the hand in 1985?
This could be a case of, "we have the stick" to show respect for us?
Climb away I say…
