I agree with Guy, could you please take this post down. As a local of the area, and someone who wants to keep the area beautiful, I urge you to take this post down.

Hi Guy. Thanks so much for raising your concerns. It was distressing to hear that the increase in visitors to Northbrook Gorge has resulted in degradation of the environment, and an increase in litter. I agree with you that something needs to be done, but I’m not sure that depriving others of the chance to see this wonderful place, is fair, given that we have both enjoyed the experience. Can I suggest that you raise your concerns with the Department of National Parks, as Northbrook Gorge is in D'Aguilar National Park, which falls under their jurisdiction. As experts, they may be able to provide the best and fairest solution. You could let them know what is going on via the ‘Contact us’ link on their website (http://www.npsr.qld.gov.au/). I would encourage anyone else who has visited the area recently, who has similar concerns to do the same. Regards Myrtle
