Mt Warning Protest Jan 26, 2024
Jan 2^nd, 2024 at 7:09pm

The traditional custodians of Mt Warning, Sturt Davis (Boyd) and the Ngarakwal people are inviting you to come along and support their efforts to reopen the summit walking track. What better way could you spend this contraversial holiday than coming together for a peaceful gathering to assist in the return of this landmark to its rightful custodians.

Event by Right To Climb and Re-open Mt Warning
Gerald Parker Park
Group · Members of Re-open Mt Warning
PUBLIC MEETING Australia Day 26 JAN 2024 at 1:30 PM REOPEN WOLLUMBIN/MT WARNING
AT: GERALD PARKER PARK, Kyogle Road, Uki

You are invited by the Ngarakwal people (direct descendants of knowledge keeper/custodian Mrs Millie Boyd) of Northern NSW to please join in & support the reopening of Wulambiny Momoli/Mt Warning.

History & Ngarakwal have always said this mountain is sacred & that it is a woman’s AND men’s place. As custodian Mrs Marlene Boyd once said “how can the public experience the spiritual significance of this land if they do not climb to the summit and witness creation?”

Bundjalung Land Councils & the Wollumbin Consultative Group (WCG) spent 23 years in a pursuit of this landmark. 2 years ago, contrary to tribal lore, they said it’s a men’s only site & closed it off to the public. Bundjalung have totally neglected the mountain & the climbing track & Ngarakwal want management rights & for the mountain to be repaired & reopened for climbing.

GUEST SPEAKERS: Sturt Davis (Boyd)- Ngarakwal Spokesperson,
Marc Hendrickx- Geologist & Author of “A Guide to Climbing Mt Warning: The Fight for Awe & Wonder” Craig Evans- Save our Summits & Andrew Flanagan- Mtn Biker & Adventurer
AFTERWARDS THERE WILL BE A BOOK SIGNING BY
MARC HENDRICKX

Dare one ask what the 'new' state government is doing about this? We know Parrot's tits signed off on it - but what's Ho Chi doing other than hoping the issue will go away?

Peaceful gathering?

I bet there will be a blue on? ..... some of those wanting the place closed off have already demonstrated their propensity for violence & vandalism of private property if anyone turned up in the parking area there.

There have been tyres slashed, vehicle windows smashed and one part non reflective chap has even made threats of physical violence on his Facebook page.

Yup - the important thing is this - will the police and courts, under the hand of Ho Chi Minns - actually DO their job and prevent crime and arrest wrongdoers.... or will they do a KrystallNacht and stand back and watch while the New Juden have their cars smashed?

I'll be surprised if a single cop shows up to 'keep the peace' - but if anyone defends self or property, you can bet they'll be hunted down like wild dogs - all of a sudden security cameras will work there...... but they are blind to anything but white. Grin

Why? You want to climb me too? Shocked

Have you met Bobby?

Why wouldn't you want to enjoy the spiritual creation of the earth mother as the sun comes up in the East, from the first point in Australia you can see it? It's hardly an Abo thing.... it's for everyone .... restore the track properly and improve it and freediver's yer uncle!! Stop the violence around the bottom from the Usual Suspects which is disturbing the spirits and causing them distress over such things going on around their sacred place... talk about hypocrisy.... Cool
