Hey everyone!

Hammy and I (Raff) are headed down to The Nest for some easy hungover climbing. The nest is riddled with carrot bolts, so if you have never climbed on them before this is a great spot to learn as the grades start at 8. Check it out on thecrag, where you’ll notice that the grades go up to 24 so if you’re feeling like sending something hard you won’t be bored either. We will set up top ropes, but if you want to lead that’s all good.

It will likely be a late start as I need my beauty sleep, however you should expect a full day of climbing. We will leave from the crag and go straight back to Sydney. You all club gear that is borrowed must be returned before leaving. To show that you have read the description, let me know if you think Hammy will redeem himself and make good food on the Saturday night?

What to bring:

• ATC (or other belay device) *
• Locking Carabiner *
• Harness *
• Helmet *
• Climbing Shoes *
• Enclosed Shoes
• Appropriate clothes (Something you can hike and climb in)
• Sunscreen
• Hat
• 2L of Water
• Lunch
• A backpack that can hold all your stuff
• Any medications you need

If you have any of your own personal gear you are encouraged to bring it, as club gear can run out. Things like ropes and quickdraws will be appreciated.

Gear followed by a * can be borrowed on the day, but again if you have your own please use it.

In your comment please let us know what climbing experience you have, any skills you would like to learn and anything else you feel is important.
