  • Victorian Climbing Management Guidelines
    Victorian Climbing Management Guidelines Compiled for the Victorian Climbing Community Revision: V04 Published: 15 Sept 2020 1 Contributing Authors: Matthew Brooks - content manager and writer Ashlee Hendy Leigh Hopkinson Kevin Lindorff Aaron Lowndes Phil Neville Matthew Tait Glenn Tempest Mike Tomkins Steven Wilson Endorsed by: Crag Stewards Victoria VICTORIAN CLIMBING MANAGEMENT GUIDELINES V04 15 SEPTEMBER 2020 2 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Foreword - Consultation Process for The Victorian Climbing Management Guidelines ​ The need for a process for the Victorian climbing community to discuss widely about best rock-climbing practices and how these can maximise safety and minimise impacts of crag environments has long been recognised. Discussions on these themes have been on-going in the local Victorian and wider Australian climbing communities for many decades. These discussions highlighted a need to broaden the ways for climbers to build collaborative relationships with Traditional Owners and land managers. Over the years, a number of endeavours to build and strengthen such relationships have been undertaken; Victorian climbers have been involved, for example, in a variety of collaborative environmental stewardship projects with Land Managers and Traditional Owners over the last two decades in particular, albeit in an ad hoc manner, as need for such projects have become apparent. The recent widespread climbing bans in the Grampians / Gariwerd have re-energised such discussions and provided a catalyst for reflection on the impacts of climbing, whether inadvertent or intentional, negative or positive. This has focussed considerations of how negative impacts on the environment or cultural heritage can be avoided or minimised and on those climbing practices that are most appropriate, respectful and environmentally sustainable.

One of Australia’s most important painters, Fred Williams You Yang Pond 1963 Williams irreversibly changed the way we consider the Australian oil on composition board landscape. In this first exhibition curated by Jason Smith since Art Gallery of South Australia, Adelaide Gift of Godfrey Phillips International Pty Ltd he become Director of the Geelong Gallery in February 2016, 1968 Fred Williams in the You Yangs features more than fifty paintings, © Estate of Fred Williams drawings and prints that mark the revolutionary turning point in Williams’ art and beyond. Viewed together, they reveal the way his observation of, and work in, the You Yangs altered his – and our – ideas on how landscape could be represented. The spectacular You Yangs range lies just over 20 km north of Geelong, and is a sacred site of the Wadawurrung (also Wathaurong) people, whose traditional clan lands encompass the You Yang and Geelong. The name You Yang comes from Aboriginal words Wurdi Youang or Ude Youang, which may have a number of meanings from ‘big mountain in the middle of a plain’, to ‘big or large hill’. Williams first spotted the range in 1957 from the deck of the ship on which he was sailing home to Melbourne from London.
