A lot of people in 4wd clubs are trying to do the right thing but It certainly doesn’t sound like it’s been done to professional conservation standards
(ICOMOS and Burra Charter, if I recall them correctly from 1992?)
I doubt appealing to the government will help unless you can show cash flow benefits, but 4wd clubs are trying to do the right thing, they need help.
A lot of the Track runs through Martu Country
Peter Veth at UWA has a long history in the region – he might have a view ?

I think the point is well made – most of these people are motivated by love for the past and the memories it invokes but are also people who want to “do” things and are impatient with things like the “Burra Charter” process.
ICOMOS has a section on cultural routes – in Australia this is bundled with the Cultural Landscapes section to become one National Scientific Committee (which keen readers of OzArch will recall recently met at Port Fairy) and it would be interesting to see how they would deal with an issue like this.

The Kosciusko huts is a great example of community efforts done well, with structure and planning.
This would be an equally valid methodology to apply on the Canning, however the sheers distances (circa 1,800 kms) and remoteness involved makes it (on the face of it) a pretty daunting task to apply consistent and ‘controllable’ management from north to south.

Hello,
Similarly, such roads as the one from Bourke to Tibooburra and beyond (if there is actually any 'beyond' beyond there) actually follow springs that no doubt were also Aboriginal waterholes I'd guess.
However some of these places do get so modified that when I went to some I said "where are the springs" and had some most unremarkable patches (maybe very slightly damp but not even that sometimes) pointed out to me.
However that there were artesian springs at some places that now have very little surface evidence left of anything can sometimes still be discerned if there are pebbles of Late Devonian type quartzite laying around .. as there is little way such could yet there other than that once the place was a mud spring (now completely eroded away).
Knowing of my long interest in springs a friend recently gave be a bottle of "Indigenous" spring water, so labelled (he only gave me the plastic bottle, he had first consumed the water).
Actually most bottled "Spring" water in Australia ought to be re-labelled the "BIGGEST LIE YET ALLOWED BY THE GOVERNMENT".
The Government has allowed, or generated, some classic porkies in its time .. like "No radioactive waste will go Kemps Creek" when they were actually getting ready to take all the Hunters Hill radioactive waste there (since however cancelled because "radioactive" is a bad word to have around Badgerrys Creek with the airport finally approved) but in sheer scale "Pure Natural Spring Water" exceeds all. For very little, if any, of said water has ever been anywhere within cooee of any spring.
Another bit of spring interest for me recently is that I got sent a photo of a ground-edge axe that I was told was found with some bones and Aboriginal artefacts besides a hot spring near Narrabri.
"Hot spring near Narrabri"? This was news to me.

Hi All,
Late to this, but it seems to be a growing – and disturbing – trend… I recently responded to a discussion on twitter regarding a call for “grey nomads” to travel the Kimberley “restoring” historical graves – they were hoping to get someone with an engraving machine out there to spruce up the gravestones…
I suggested (after I picked myself up off the floor) that anyone promoting such an enterprise should consider engaging enthusiastic tourists in a one or two day workshop on appropriately recording heritage places such as these. I figured that if they were better informed, they might be able to resist the temptation to “tidy things up” and be content to take GPS readings, measurements and photographs to record the places and their condition.
My bluff was called and one tourism company immediately contacted me to say they would be very interested in providing such an experience, using an information and educational workshop led by a suitable heritage professional to springboard a heritage tourism experience. So, the inevitable question: who of you in the west might be interested/available to conduct such workshops and would be willing to have your details passed along?
It’s easy enough to be cynical about those with a non-professional interest in heritage, but these interests are also opportunities to inform and educate, perhaps… Anyway, if you already run an outreach program like this, or you may be interested in testing the waters, please let me know?
Best wishes to all,
Deb Brian, Brisbane
