To those of you familiar, no description is required.

Never mind if you have no experience with these things, this is your chance to give it a go!

WHAT TO BRING:

If you don’t know what to bring, here’s a useful guide (http://unswoc.org/wordpress/events-18/boree-log-packing-list/ ) The club will be able to provide you technical equipment, but if you have your own wetsuits, harnesses, misc climbing gear etc., please bring it, because supplies are limited. The club will also have a number of tents for people to sleep in, but again, if you have your own, bring it also. The club has NO sleeping mats or sleeping bags. It’ll be colder than in Sydney, so at least bring a dooner and a cheap yoga mat from kmart if you don’t have a sleeping bag.

If you are canyoning, try to bring your own wetsuit

*Food is only provided on Saturday night. PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN FOOD for the rest of the weekend!

COST:

If you car share: Petrol for your driver

If you catch PT: PT fees + $5 for the driver who will ferry you from the train station to the campsite
