[FULL] Sport Climbing at Berowra – Saturday 5th April

Hey Everyone!

This Saturday April 5th, Gabriel and I (Amelia V) will be leading a beginner friendly sport climbing trip to Berowra (weather permitting!). It’s a great place for all skill and experience levels as there are a range of grades and styles. We will be setting up top ropes for most the climbs so no experience is required, only a keen attitude!

The trip leaders will review all trip sign ups and you’ll receive an automated email if you get accepted or rejected for the trip. If you’ve been accepted, check Messenger as the trip leaders will make a group chat with all the participants. If you’re having issues signing up, check that you’re logged in and have a paid membership. In terms of transport, we will organise carpooling in the group chat. This will be an all day adventure, so that means we will depart in the morning, and will finish up in the afternoon.
