List of Climbers to August 1950 The Mt Olga-Ayers Rock research expedition of 1950 made a record of the list of names in the glass jar at the cairn at the summit of Ayers Rock.

Our mountains belong to all of us. The Right to Climb them and bask in their views that inspire awe and wonder is as old as the human genome.
