Sunday BL – *TRIP FULL* Devils Pinch Canyon (Intermediate)

Hi all,

Brendon and I (Josh) will be running Devils Pinch Canyon on Sunday the 27th. This canyon is suitable for intermediate canyoners however we are willing to take a few beginners with a good level of fitness and/or abseiling experience. All participants must be able to swim.

Sign up below and chuck me/Brendon a message on Facebook with any questions, your outdoors experience, car situation and gear requirements.

What to bring:

• Emergency blanket (Mandatory for all club canyoning trips. You can grab one from the gear cupboard or at Boree Log for $5 cash)
• Harness*
• Descender (ATC) and biner*
• Safety sling and biner*
• Helmet*
• Enclosed shoes (Keep in mind that these shoes will be wet and beaten up in the canyon. Don’t wear your best boots in)
• Shorts (This goes over your wetsuit so bring a pair that you don’t mind wearing out)
• Wool or polyester socks (NO COTTON)
• Spare jacket for after the canyon
• Spare dry clothes (this is left in the car)
• Thermals (optional, but bring them to wear under your wetsuit if your susceptible to the cold)
• 2 litres of water
• Lunch & snacks
• Drybag*

  (*) – Can be borrowed from the club

Make sure the clothes you wear are not made of cotton. When cotton gets wet, it ceases to insulate you as all of the air pockets in the fabric fill up with water.

TLDR: you will be very cold.

See you on Sunday!
