Archived trip from old website run by dleykam
The Lair is a shady sandstone crag near Nowra (2-2.5 drive) with an easy 5 minute approach and a nice variety of routes ranging from grade 9 slabs for beginner leaders to overhanging routes in low 20s for the gym junkies.

To come on this trip you will need to have climbed outdoors before, preferably with lead belaying experience. Meet outside the SRA on Sunday at 7:20am to leave at 7:30am and return by around 8pm.
Sign ups are only expressions of interest at this stage - number of places will be determined by availability of cars and having a suitable ratio of competent to incompetent climbers.
There will be no Pretrip.
You will need to bring your own personal climbing gear which includes:
Climbing harness
Climbing shoes
HELMET (no helmet = you will be left at ANU)
Locking carabiner + autolocking belay device if you have one
Insect repellent (there are mosquitos until sun hits crag in the afternoon)
Sunscreen
Food and water for the day (at least 3L is ideal)
First aid kit if you have one
**Please let me know your climbing experience (indoors/outdoors, grades climbed, leading/cleaning) when signing up, and whether you can drive and/or bring rope/draws/slings. This is important. If you don't include your experience when signing up I will assume you haven't read the trip description and you will be removed from the trip. **
Leave SRA at 7:30am, then climb at the lair all day
