End of the Month @ Araps/Djurite – March CANCELLED

Mount Arapiles 28 Mar 2020 — 29 Mar 2020

All VCC club trips and events have been cancelled. Please see the post on the News page of the VCC website for more information.

Mt Arapiles in autumn? Arapiles in late March provides the very best of Arapiles climbing. Enjoy the cooler temperatures and improved friction. If it’s still hot, then the shady gullies or the routes on the right side of Central Gully are there to be enjoyed. Get up (reasonably) early and enjoy the early sun’s rays on the nearby classics and well-worn trade routes in the Organ Pipes.  Maybe explore some new areas. The famous walls and prominent buttresses of Arapiles really come into their own at this time of the year.

We will be camping in The Pines, close to the action. There is no better rock to fondle than the hard quartzite of Arapiles, so contact your Trip Leader, Peter Upton, to register your interest.

These EOM@Araps/Djurite trips are intended for all levels of climbers, however Beginner spaces will be limited by the number of experienced leaders who come along. It is recommended that Beginners contact the Trip Leader as soon as possible.

Trip Leader Peter Upton

 

All intending participants must contact the trip leader prior to the trip. Please send through some details about your experience and climbing gear and hopefully we’ll see you there.
