This trip is part of the Blue Mountains Extravaganza. Please sign up to that trip before signing up here - http://anumc.org.au/node/610

An intermediate canyoning trip, only suitable for people with reasonable canyoning and abseiling experience. You will probably also need to be a reasonable swimmer (i.e. can breaststroke 200m). If I haven't canyoned with you, please describe your experience.

You will need:
* A good fitting wetsuit
* Helmet
* Canyoning/Climbing harness
* Descender and locking biner (e.g. ATC, Hydrobot, rack)
* 90cm or 120cm sling and locking biner (or a cowtail)
* A few extra locking biners and prusiks
* 30-50L pack (preferably with a waist and chest strap)
* A few dry bags
More on what to bring see: http://www.anumc.org.au/trips-weekly-events/trip-information (scroll 1/6 down page to canyoning)

You will get cold! Please bring high energy food, a rain coat to put on to keep you warm as well as a woolen beanie.
