Hey Canyoneers! We are running a beginners canyon trip for Boree Log at Gloucester Falls upper. The canyon trip itself is fairly short and can likely be done in just a few hours but the trip will take most of the day (about 6hrs). There are 6 spots open to beginners for this trip and it might be possible to open up more spots depending on interest and available transport. There are two abseils, pools, jumps and swims in the short segment of canyon that we are doing. Following is a list of what you will need for the trip. You will either need to source this gear from the club or yourself.
- Harness
- Helmet
- Belay Plate/Descender
- 2 x Carabiners
- Safety Sling
- Wetsuit (also can be borrowed from the club, alternatively ask around if anyone is willing to lend you theirs)
- Head Torch
- Woollen or Synthetic Socks (spare pair is good too, no cotton!)
- Thermals (bottoms really are a must, either to keep dry in a drybag or under wetsuits)
- Canyon worthy shoes (Volleys are good for grip and cheap)
- A backpack that can get wet or submerged in water
- A dry bag if you have one (these can usually be shared)
- Food (lunch) & Water for the day (snacks as well, also any extra that you feel you can carry)
- Petrol money for those lovely people that get us there and back
- Some spare clothes to leave in the car
Cheers!
Alex
