--------------
Wet Weather Update:
Due to flooding, Bundeela campground has been closed. If the forecast looks reasonable, we will book an alternative campsite by Wednesday.
If the forecast remains dire, we may cancel the event and run a "Canberra Extravaganza". We will do lots of individual trips, barbecues and activities locally around Canberra.
We will be posting further updates on Facebook and via the KVE email list. Please email the exec at mountaineering@anusra.com.au if you have any questions.

The Canberra Day long weekend is one of the biggest events on the ANUMC calendar. It's a great opportunity for new club members to try several of the activities in the club, and for first time trip leaders to get some experience leading with more seasoned members. This year we'll camp at the Bundeela Campground in Kangaroo Valley, where all of the things we want to do are a short drive every day
We will do a mix of Climbing, Canyoning, Bushwalking, Kayaking and maybe Mountain biking.
CBR Day long weekend is Sat 12 to Monday 14 March. We've decided on Kangaroo Valley again this year, just because it's very beginner friendly and will complement the club's growing Kayaking community. We hope to run the Blue Mountains Extravaganza at a later date
We've not got plenty of trip leaders to make the event happen, but we could still do with more so please indicate if and what you can lead in your registration :)
Equipment:
Everyone will need their own camping gear (whether hired from the GS or personal) and food for 3 days. Climbers need to hire their own shoes to make sure they have a good fit, but otherwise club gear will be hired in bulk by the activity leaders
In your registration please include:
- Whether you have your own car
- What trips you'd be most keen to try AND/OR which trips you can lead
More details will follow in the coming weeks!
