    I hate the term “traditional owners”,

    Agree that guardian (with associated responsibility) would be a more appropriate term.

    The central land council and northern land council are not issuing permits for entry into any aboriginal areas within their regions as a means to prevent the spread of COVID into those communities. Maybe this is a similar thing.

    There's just toooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo many people in QLD now all the old camping spots are just over crowed all the 4x4 crowd going to bribie island now have just stuffed the island on the weekend you just cant get on or off the island and that's happening every were.

    I just would not bother setting up like those people on the eli creek that's not getting away that's just pissing off the people beside you that wanted to get away from everyone and every thing for a short time and all the tourist heading further and further away to remote places well there not remote any more because of that.

    This won't effect land managed by local land holders on Cape York but it is slightly relevant to this thread.

    That makes a lot of sense once of prevention is better than a pond of cure and it give the places a good rest too.

    I dont know how anyone could actually close the main road north off to people other then because of covid or due to weather and/or road damage....

    But who knows we are indeed living in strange times and all too often have to rely on media and heresay for our "facts"..

    Seems the solid wet season so far hasnt been kind to the roads either....
