All Day
canyoning
The weather is warming and canyon season is on!
Join Johann and myself through the spectacular Whungee Wheengee canyon. Though it only has a few abseils, Whungee Wheengee offers some incredible constrictions, swims, and possibly glow worm sightings! Given the early season, expect to enjoy some sustained swimming/wading in cold water (up to 30m+). This canyon also has a long approach and lots of scrambling along with a few jumps into water. A good base of hiking fitness is a must.

We will be driving up from club storage Friday night and camping at Cathedral Reserve to avoid an early start Saturday. If you cannot join us for camping on Friday night, you need to still attend gear pickup Friday evening and be able to make your own way to Cathedral reserve Saturday morning.
This trip is suitable for those with previous canyoning experience with OAC. Please outline your experience and fitness level in the signup notes.
The club can provide the following personal gear:
Wetsuit
Harness
Descender
Helmet
Gloves
Canyon pack
Any overnight camping equipment
Please state in the signup information which gear you will need to borrow.
Catch you out there !
