canyoning
Hi fellow adventurers
The weekend is near, and the weather’s looking good for Saturday! No better way to spend it than going to Serendipity Canyon at Mount Wilson!
Whether you’ve recently done Abseil Skills 1 or you’re a canyoning veteran and want to kick off the season, join Dushy & myself for a fun trip to this spectacular canyon.
This canyon has a relatively short walk in and out, and some amazing scenery in between. Expect 5 to 6 abseils and some great views!
This will be a day long trip ending back at the storage locker for a final equipment check and return.
We have one car and would ideally like to have another one – passengers will pay $20 each for the round trip to and from UTS Building 10.
Registrations will close if the trip fills up. Information regarding gear, travel arrangements and so on will be sent to successful applicants by Thursday evening, so keep an eye on emails.
IMPORTANT:
When you sign up, please make sure you indicate (a) the size of wetsuit you need and (b) if you can bring a car.
Pre-requisite:
– Meet the group at UTS Building 10 on Saturday morning (we will discuss transport options once places are confirmed).
– Available to drop off gear at the end of the trip on Saturday evening back at the storage facility.
– Must have done Abseil skills 1
– Able to swim at least 15 meters unassisted
– Good fitness
– Comfortable with scrambling around boulders, logs and other obstacles
– Comfortable with jumping into a pool of water from a height
– Must respond to all emails promptly
We are expecting to get wet in this canyon, so it is essential that you bring warm clothing – both for the canyon itself and also a second set to change into once we’re back at the cars.
We are looking forward to taking you canyoning!
Cheers
Birger & Dushy
