Intermediate caving - Wee Jasper

LET’S GO CAVING!!!!!

This trip has places for some peeps to come to caving at the Wee Jasper caves, on Ngunnawal country, not far from Canberra. About a 6 hour drive...Yay!

When: 19th of June, leaving about 2pm on Friday, camping Friday and Saturday night and driving back to Newcastle Sunday evening. There are toilets and hot showers at camp (which will be much needed).

What: Now this is the fun part. First, we make our way to the caves which will be a short walk or drive to the cave entrance. Second, we put on our helmets, switch on our torches and dive into the underground world of rock, darkness and awesomeness. Once inside we walk, crawl, slide, and swear our way through the tunnels, trying to see what we can find and where we can get. It’s the ultimate in terms of exploration, the only thing stopping you finding out what’s around the corner or in that tunnel is you. If you are claustrophobic, this is not the trip for you. We're aiming to get 2 caves done, one on Saturday and another on Sunday.

Skills: These caves are not for the faint of heart, they are vertical, there will be squeezing and there will be squirming! Preferably you have caved before, but as the minimum you MUST have abseiling AND ascending skills and be comfortable in tight spaces. If you are claustrophobic this is NOT the trip for you. 

Any questions please feel free to send me an email or Facebook message.

That's all the info you need, so once you've got your ticket, make sure to be at the gear store by 1:30 pm AT THE LATEST on Friday the 19th of June for our departure at 2:00. More details to be sent out once tickets are sold.

Camping gear can be borrowed prior, it's a first-in-first-served system. 

That's all from me, get keen, sign up, you know the drill.

Cheers,

Chris B
