-Canoe & Camping - Gladesville Kegarah Bay Blackheath Taxis & Tourist Services +Some people think it doesn't matter if you do damage to the bush. "Oh, the bush soon recovers", they say. This was true about 40 years ago, when only the hardy few went walking. Today, our bush is invaded every weekend by a growing __army__ of outdoor enthusiasts. 
-Eastwood Camping Centre + 
-10 +On a recent walk we camped near some young wattles. The ground was strewn with dead ones, which made good tent poles. So I was amazed to see someone cutting down a live sapling. Why? "For a tent pole". "What about these dead ones?" I asked, "they would be perfect". Back I went to my tent, but a few minutes later saw the walker dragging away a felled sapling. "Oh, this is a different one, it was damaged and would have died". The stump did indeed have a crack in it - well healed - and judging by the mass of green leaves on the tree, it was very healthy. 
-13 + 
-14 +Why such a fuss over a wattle sapling? Arithmetic, thats why. This person must have done 40 walks with the club. If a living tree had been used each time, that would be the end of 40 trees. What if all walkers did the same? Multiply every walker in NSW by 10 years of walking you will get some idea of the damage which could result from a 'low impact' recreation. And this in National Parks - the very areas we are trying to preserve!
