Beginner friendly climbing at the gorge (ROC)

To join this trip, visit http://roc.org.au/trips/trip-info/?trip_id=5742 and click 'Join trip' at the bottom of that page.

Come join us for a climbing day at the Melbourne classic, Werribee Gorge.
All levels of experience welcome.
The plan is to meet early at a nearby cafe before making the drive and the hike to the crag. We'll set up some top ropes and climb until we're tired. There is also some sport climbing available for those with indoor lead passes.
Equipment required:

• Climbing helmet (bike/snowboard helmets are not acceptable)
• Harness
• Climbing shoes
• Sufficient food and water
• Weather appropriate clothing
• Sturdy shoes for the hike in
  The gear room is open from 18:30 -19:30 on Tuesdays and Thursdays for those needing to hire gear.
  Trip Costs:
• $10 for gear hire per person
• Approx $20 for petrol
  A carpool will be organised closer to the date. Please note in the comments if you want to be excluded from the carpool.
  Feel free to reach out if you have any questions.
  See you all there!
