You must be approved for Boree Log to attend this trip!
On the Sunday of Boree Log myself (Tadeh) and Julie are going deep into the jungles in the search for El Dorado to find golden cracks for climbing. For anyone new to outdoor climbing, trad climbing involves placing your own gear in the rock for protection, so there are no permanent fixed bolts in the rock.
We are happy to teach you the fundamentals of trad climbing but people with outdoor climbing experience will be given preference for this trip. Ideally you can lead climb around grade 17-19. We will bring along trad racks but bring your own gear if you have any.
You will need
- 2 L water (MINIMUM)
- Food
- Comfortable shoes to walk in
- Climbing shoes, chalk and climbing tape can be useful
- Backpack
- Jacket/warm clothing in case it gets cold
- sunscreen
- Helmet*
- Harness*
- Belay device* with locking carabiner*
*club has limited supplies that can be borrowed
Please let us know your experience in the comments box, whether you’ve got a car and your favourite climbing brand to be consider for this trip 🙂
