-SUMMER TRIPS +----

 +===== Summer Trips. =====

 By Roger Browne By Roger Browne

 I often hear people comment that "There's no good bushwalking in summer." This surprises me, since many of my favourite trips are summer trips. Certainly, summer is not the season to be climbing Mt Paralyser in record time. The key to pleasurable summer trips is to pick the style of trip to match the season. Often summer trips center around rivers and streams, with perhaps a relatively short climb out on sunday afternoon, after the hottest part of the day has passed. I often hear people comment that "There's no good bushwalking in summer."

-Summer trips bring their own pleasures. Darkness does not fall until after eight, making it unnecessary to cook in the darkness. There is often plenty of daylight left after arriving at camp, for swimming/reading/relaxing/exploring. The evenings are usually mild - there is not the winter experience of one's front warmed by the fire whilst one's kidneys feel the chill from behind. It's warm enough , to sleep in the open most nights, enjoying starry vistas, or maybe the sight of thousands of glow-worms on the canyon walls. And even if it rains, it's not nearly so unpleasant as in winter - sometimes a summer storm can be quite enjoyable!+

For those who stay around Sydney, there are perhaps five 'classic' types of trips:
-1. The li-b canyons. The most well-known of these is the Wollangambe River. Other great li-b canyons can be found in Du Faurs Creek, Bell Creek (cold!), or Dumbano Creek. These involve paddling a li-b along narrow ribbons of water flanked by sheer canyon walls, between which beams of sunlight cast quivering shadows and highlight the ferns clinging to the canyon walls. There are no rapids, and the whole trip is tranquil, gentle and beautiful. There are day and week-end trips.+

 2. The walk/swim/abseil canyons such as Claustral and Thunder canyons. There are three abseils involved in each of these canyons. They can be (and usually are) done as day trips, but on a two-day trip you will usually sleep by the light of thousands of glow-worms. The abseils involved are not in themselves technically difficult, but the trips involve a wide variety of techniques - swimming with packs, abseiling through keyhole slots and beside waterfalls, rock scrambling and in some cases swimming through natural tunnels. 2.

 3. Cascading trips such as Morong Deep on the Kowmung River. Here it is necessary to waterproof your pack and let the current carry you down the river. There are also long stretches of walking. The trip is through beautifully sculptured pink granite formations, and ever-changing water sculptures. The campsite may be on a level granite slab, or maybe in a small pocket of grass in an enchanted dell. 3. Cascading trips such as Morong Deep on the Kowmung River.

 4. White-water li-lo trips such as parts of the Coxs and Shoalhaven Rivers, after sufficient rain. Here you have the choice of shooting each rapid, or walking around it. But you have to be prepared for the occasional spill. 4. White-water li-lo trips such as parts of the Coxs and Shoalhaven Rivers, after sufficient rain.

 5. The vertical abseil canyons, such as Kalang Falls or Davies Canyon in the Kanangra area. These are technically more difficult, requiring prior abseiling skill. I can't describe them, since I've not done any of them, but those who do them enjoy them very much, and I hope to try a few soon. 5.

-Gear+=== Gear. === 
 On summer trips, you can use a lightweight sleeping bag, and you do not need an elaborate tent. However, there are some items of gear that are needed to enable you to float or abseil, and to keep warm in cold water. Little sunlight reaches into the deeper canyons, and while Sydney is experiencing its hottest day of the summer, the water in Claustral Canyon and Bell Creek will be icy cold. Most other creeks are not as cold, but can still be chilly if the weather is overcast and you've been in most of the day. On summer trips, you can use a lightweight sleeping bag, and you do not need an elaborate tent.

Most other creeks are not as cold, but can still be chilly if the weather is overcast and you've been in most of the day.
-LI-LO: For serious li-b trips, a rubberised cotton li-lo must be used. These are also sometimes called rubberised canvas. The nylon types are OK for a day trip down the main stretch of the Wollangambe, or for playing around at a swimming hole, but not much more. If you intend to sleep on the li-b (and therefore leave your foam mat or beloved therm-a-rest at home), you should select the style of li-lo having a line of slant ribbing on each side of the pillow. These are quite comfortable to sleep on, in constrast to the standard style which causes sore necks, dribbling, and all sorts of other problems. Bring puncture repair materials. 
-ABSEILING GEAR: Standard gear for canyons is a harness or suitable tapes from which to make one (most people find 2m of 50mm flat tape plus 1.5m of 25mm tubular tape OK), plus gloves, 2 large D-karabiners and a brake bar (such as a piton). Other abseiling devices (such as figure-8 descenders) are not so useful because they need to be detached from the harness in order to remove the rope. 
-ROPE: Abseils are almost always double-roped. lOmm static rope is suitable. 
-WETSUIT: For Claustral and other very cold canyons. Also useful on any river trip to improve your comfort in less-than-ideal weather. You do not need a scuba- type heavy wetsuit. A light surfer's 'spring-suit' is fine. It should be made from 2-to-3 mm fabric, and be of one-piece construction with short sleeves and short legs. Make sure that it fits closely, without being constrictive. Light wetsuits of this type are comfortable to wear, and easy to walk in between swims. 
-THERMAL WEAR: A 'Ufa' T-shirt and long-johns are great for a bit of warmth and also provide some sunburn protection. They are very light. A beanie is also well worth taking on river trips. 
-WATERPROOFING: You can achieve this with nested layers of heavy-duty garbage bags. Alternatively, high-quality canyon bags are available from outdoor shops, as are heavy plastic pack liner bags. In any case, put your sleeping-bag in an extra layer of plastic. 
-COSTS: Typical costs are Li-lo $20, Abseiling gear $20, Rope $2/metre, Wetsuit $70, Thermal wear $20 a piece, Canyon Bag $30, Waterproof pack liners $2. Some items (such as li-los and wetsuits) are available more cheaply at K-mart. 
-Hazards 
-These trips involve different hazards to winter trips, and there have been some deaths in places like Claustral Canyon. However, SBW leaders tend to be fairly safety-conscious, and I feel the risks are no higher than for a typical winter bush- walk. Hazards include exposure, falls and flash floods. But, on the other hand, by the nature of the trips, bushfire and snakebite risks are much reduced.

 There was discussion on the weight a pack should be, and a maximum of 10 kg for prospectives new to walking was suggested. It was felt to be advisable for leaders to weigh packs and assist in removal of excessive contents before starting out. The weight of packs needs to be kept to a reasonable minimum in case of accident and the need to split a pack for others to carry out. There was discussion on the weight a pack should be, and a maximum of 10 kg for prospectives new to walking was suggested.
