Stonehenge Bouldering Day

Stonehenge Bouldering Day
Stonehenge Recreation Reserve
8:00 AM – 5:00 PM
Get keen for a day of cold weather bouldering out at the Stonehenge recreation reserve! We are planning to get out to Stonehenge recreation reserve which is a really accessible climbing location close to Glen Innes (about an hour north of Armidale). There is a great variety of bouldering at this location on granite boulders. The club will bring out a number of boulder pads and if you have one feel free to bring it along (the more the merrier). If not don't worry, you will just need some climbing shoes and a chalk bag (and a trusty safety beanie). If you don't have shoes or chalk again don't worry as the club can help out if you let us know. You will also need to bring out some snacks, lunch and at least 2 litres of water. Details will be updated closer to the event but we will aim to meet at 8AM on Saturday the 9th of May to carpool out to Stonehenge and get on the rock. Hope to see you there.
