11-12 November, Mt Rosea & Bundaleer - base camp

The WVCC November base camp will be Mt Rosea and Bundaleer in the central Grampians, 10 km or so south-west of Halls Gap. We will be camping at the Borough Huts campground. The rock is sandstone, multi-pitch and mainly trad. This is not a good place for beginners and you should be leading trad grade 14 at least to get some value out of this weekend. Bring your full rack (nuts and a full set of cams).

All intending participants must contact the trip coordinator, Tim Billington, prior to the trip to let him know you are coming, your level of experience and whether you need a climbing partner - and if you have any questions (0438 118 103 AH; or email tim_billington@yahoo.com.au)

You will need to bring all the necessaries if you are planning on camping the night.

• camping gear - tent, mattress, sleeping bag, head torch, stove, pots, etc
• food and water
• suitable clothing - check the weather forecast (bring sunscreen and a hat)

You can find more detals on camping at Borough Huts at the Parks website here.
