Thread: Molesworth National Park

I would not like to see it as a National Park under the current legislation and management framework, but by the same token as an enduring "crown park" with those prepared to make a "on the ground contribution" to its upkeep having a real say in its management would be good.

The fire risk thing is interesting, its a "storyline" I've heard a million times, but personally I have a very strong suspicion its complete bullshit, if it were so then "retired lands of 30 years ago (Lake Mavoura area for example, but there are 10's of thousands of other hectares as examples) and other lands should have gone up in huge smokeballs several times over by now.

I've seen more "accidental" fires on leasehold than on crown land in the last 5 or so years.
