Jugglers canyon (dry) – beginners trip!

Jason and I are leading a trip on Sunday through Jugglers canyon! This is going to be a super awesome trip! Jugglers is a super pleasant canyon near the Grand Canyon at Medlow Bath.

Check this out!

Sick right?! More info and pics can be found here: https://ozultimate.com/canyoning/track_notes/jugglers.htm

This is a whole day adventure so you need to be fit! It’s alright if you have not abseiled before, we can show you the ropes. Please fill out the form when you sign up and comment with your experience (if you don’t have rope skills, just comment what other outdoor activities you have done) and your favorite outdoors snack (preferably also bring it to the canyon 😀 )!

This is a dry canyon so we don’t expect to get too wet (aka wet feet, but probably no swims), but it will still be chilly, so bring warm clothing. I usually wear thermals, a pair of old shorts, shirt and a rain jacket on top.

What you need:

• harness*
• helmet*
• safety + biner*
• figure 8 + biner*
• backpack that can get wet(*)
• headtorch (if you dont have a head torch, bring at least some kind of torch)
• drybag*
• runners that may get trashed
• thermals and woolen or synthetic socks (don’t wear ANY cotton, you will be miserably cold if you get wet!)
• spare set of thermals to carry in your drybag (for emergencies)
• rain jacket
• lunch and snacks!
• at least 2l of water
• dry clothes and shoes for the car ride back
• adventure spirit and heaps of good mood!

*you can get this from the club on gear night (check the unswoc page to hire)

If you have any questions about gear, the gear officers will be able to help you on Thursday night at the gear cupboard. Ask them all the questions you want

We will meet at the carpark pretty early (8-9am!) and we probably need some drivers so please let me know if you have a car!

Get keen and see ya there!

Cheers,

Steve + Jason
