DATES:
Leaving 28th September – Leaving 7th October

DESCRIPTION:
You’re invited to join a trad climbing week at Mt Arapiles.

Mt Arapiles — not “The Arapiles” just “Arapiles” — is the spiritual home of Australian rock climbing. We’ve got a coveted campsite at the Pines booked for 8 humans over the mid semester break. The pines is to Australian climbing like Yosemite Camp 4 is to American climbers. This trip is a rite of passage, a must do for anyone interested in trad climbing or climbing history.

PREFERENCE:
This is a capacity building opportunity for the club. We hope to build a strong base of these trad climbing skills. Because of this preference will go to trip leaders with multi-pitching and/or trad experience and then to regular club members with some trad experience. Formal trad skills training outside the club or experience multi pitch climbing are also be desirable skills to offer this trip.

GETTING THERE:
The crag is 11 hours away from Sydney. We should be able to pile into a few cars and share petrol costs.

ACCOMMODATION:
We are staying at the Pines Campsite – https://maps.app.goo.gl/f9CpakSDFd2YBeA49?g_st=ic
