Easy - Medium | Newnes Plateau | FREEZEFEST. The 10th Anniversary in Australia of "the bad idea that caught on" as it became to be known in the USA where it originated. This year we received advance notice so that leaders can set aside the date to lead MSS trips for those brave enought to be on the plateau in the middle of winter. Come prepared to freeze your socks off, or with the excuse "I forgot my wetsuit". MSS members need not be restricted to MSS trips on the weekend, there will be a mix of wet, dry, technical and non-technical canyons on the weekend - come prepared for anything! The best bit is meeting other folk, having a super badass campfire, and the boasting rights if you take the wet option challenge. Trish Morrow will co-ordinate. Let Trish know if you are attending. Details will follow closer to the time (eg, place, meeting time etc). |

Hard | Wyanbene | Wyanbene Cave is a wild cave in the Deua National Park. It is an efflux which is long and quite wet in places. Expect lots of wading and one section of crawling in the river known as the "Wet Stretch". Some vertical sections requiring ropework as well. We will attempt to reach "Frustration Lake" (so named because it has frustrated all attempts at extending the cave). Entry is subject to a NPWS permit being granted. |
