Uluru Climbers Thwarted by Strong Winds and Changing Rules

Climbers can no longer scale Uluru, the monolithic rock in central Australia once known as Ayers Rock, that is scared to the Anangu people.

The board of the Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park voted unanimously in 2017, to ban the climb because of the site’s spiritual significance, and for safety and environmental reasons.
