TRACKCARE 2009

Climbers improving access and conditions at local crags

Summit Gear is a proud supporter of the Blue Mountains Climbers' Trackcare group - a combined project of Blue Mountains City Council and the climbing community. Activities include trail maintenance and improvements, rubbish removal and weed removal at local crags.

The group always needs more volunteers. If you can just donate one day of your year, we can improve the climbing areas for everyone.

Trackcare volunteers need to bring suitable clothing, sturdy shoes, sun hat and drinking water. Council will provide protective equipment and tools.

RSVP is essential.

Dates for 2009:

  • 30th May
