The Sydney Rockies have invited the VCC to join them on a trip to the Blue Mountains over the ‘extended’ Melbourne Cup weekend.  This is a great opportunity for a short ‘best of tour’ of the Blueys.

They are providing free camping accommodation at a member’s well located property and some climbing buddies to take us to their favourite classic Blueys spots. This will include Mt Piddington, Bell Supercrag and others depending on the weather and the sun.

Maximum climbing will be possible because the members of the Sydney Rockies are going to help us with transport. So the plan is for us to fly into Sydney Airport. They will help as much as they can with transport from the airport or train stations.

If you are interested in joining this inter club meet, please contact the VCC Trip Leader, Dave Scarlett, as soon as possible.
