Buffalo Trad Weekend (ROC)

To join this trip, visit http://roc.org.au/trips/trip-info/?trip_id=5907 and click 'Join trip' at the bottom of that page.

Do you love cheese grating down granite slabs and plunging into icy cold alpine lakes? Then this is the trip for you!
I'm running a Mount Buffalo Trad weekend trip from Friday the 20th to Sunday the 22nd of March 2026. To attend this trip, you need to be a trad leader with the club- also keep in mind the easy trad is a bit tougher than the easy trad at Arapiles. I've booked three campsites at the beautiful Lake Catani campground from Friday to Sunday- I'll likely drive up after work on Friday but people are welcome to drive up earlier in the day!
See you all there!
