What better way to welcome in summer than some sends at Araps?
Whether you're a lead climber or are a beginner, all skill levels are welcome to join for some top roping adventures. Checked off leaders with ROC are also more than welcome to climb some trad. Please mention in the comments if you plan to lead or stick to top-roping!
If you are a checked off anchor setter and happy to set and/or check some anchors, please mention this in the comments or shoot me a message. Would really appreciate your time <3
The plan is to carpool to Arapiles on Friday night and camp at The Pines campground for the weekend. We’ll get some climbing in on Saturday and Sunday, and return home on Sunday night. I will book in dinner at the Natimuk pub on Saturday night for some cheeky parmas and bevs.
