It would be sad to see yet another natural area attraction closed, further restricting all Australians access to our unique natural bushland and environment.

For many generations, people from all over Australia and the world have travelled great distances to experience the natural wonders of Australia such as Mt Warning. It is a natural formation of the Earth, it should be fully accessible for everyone to visit and climb to the summit should they wish.
It is not a construction of mankind, or place of worship, it is a natural formation of the Earth present for many millions of years long before life on Earth.
Just as the Aboriginal people of Australia have a spiritual connection with this place, other people also form their own human spiritual connection and should be able to do so freely without racial discrimination by minority groups.
These minority groups are adamant that a natural formation of the Earth is there exclusively for their own culture and no one else is worthy of the experience.
Just like Uluru, just like sections of the Grampians, just like many other natural significant places around Australia, they're all natural formations of the Earth that are slowly but surely being prohibited to visit over racial and cultural discrimination reasons and it is grossly unfair.
If these places were nothing but flat land, you can be there would be no deprivation of human kind to explore.
If white Australian's started prohibiting Aboriginal people from entering certain sections of Australia's natural environment, we would be shot down with elevated claims of racism and discrimination in a heart beat.
Leave Mt Warning open to everyone, and stop Parks organisations shutting down some of the most incredible places of this beautiful country to experience out of racist cultural demands and pedantic irrational concerns over safety.
We are all humans of this Earth.

Dear sir/madam, the idea of excluding people based in their race is something we are supposed o be fighting against; not encouraging. If we exclude people (such as my husbands family who have a connection to Mount Warning for many generations) based in their European heritage then it’s as good as saying only people of Anglo Saxon heritage can visit any sacred site in England or France....that would be classed as racism! An where do all of us Australia’s who identify with this land belong then? My family has heritage from around the world, including indigenous origins....but my home is here....

Totally agree with Ms Boyd - said so for a long time now in argument online and on Twitter.

The government should not be imposing one religion's sacred cows on everyone else. We have killed a lot of people to stop that happening. Let's not start again.

An Active outdoor lifestyle should be encouraged by our governments.
