From Pathfinder Wiki
- Keep your group to a small and manageable size (4-8).
- Don’t place bolts or alter rock surfaces in any way.
- Avoid leaving unnecessary slings and remove old slings.
- Keep to creek channels to avoid sensitive creek banks and soft vegetation.
- Avoid establishing new abseil routes or footpads – keep to existing paths or spread out in trackless terrain.
- Walk carefully in rocky pagoda areas – flaky rocks and thin ledges can break easily.
- Avoid marking tracks (signs, cairns, broken branches). Each group should have at least one competent navigator.
- Don’t publicise ‘new’ canyons or those in wilderness areas to preserve opportunities for discovery and to minimise impacts.
- Use fuel stoves – fires scars are unsightly, attract rubbish and encourage vegetation damage.
- Avoid camping in canyon environments.
- Dispose of human waste away from canyons.
- Leave the crayfish and other wildlife alone.
- Carry out any rubbish.
