Its only out of control if people do the wrong thing and leave crap everywhere.

So for an interloper from NSW the management standard is amazing.

The worst thing about Oberon (and Cygnus) is the section of supposedly hardened track between the tent platforms and the dunny. Even in dry conditions much of it is three inches or more under water, and it's over mossy, boggy ground. Not only are those spots being badly churned up, but a lot of people obviously detour around them and pads are starting to form and the degradation spreading.
Raised duckboarding would be highly visible from above, but it's the only way to stop the situation worsening.

Just regarding the Oberon work, it was done on the 15th December, piggy backed with the Sputnik swap over. The previously installed stepping stones had sunk so we went roughly over the same line with parallel planking. This caused far less disturbance to the site than trying to relocate the original rocks (which were huge). The timber itself was the cheap bit, mostly leftover from other jobs, but the helicopter time adds up very quickly. Not a bad office to work in for the day I must admit...
Cheers
