Climbing Malibu Creek
What to Bring:
Bring a small backpack (about 10-15 litres in size)
Remember to bring with you all the supplies you’ll need for the day including medications, low treats, backup meter, lunch, snacks and water (1 litre is the usual but perhaps 2 litres in the summertime)
There will be a 25 minute hike in from our parking area.
Trail runners are perfect.
Flip-flops or Crocs may be a little questionable on this terrain.
Hiking boots are good.
There’s no restrooms at the parking area but there are porta-potties at the climbing area.
Since we will be exposed to the elements:
Sun protection, and wind protection are the main things to consider (layers are the way to go)
In the winter it can get chilly, so a beanie and puffy will be great additions.
The summertime can get toasty out there in the sun.
For summer trips, I’d add a wide brimmed hat, sunscreen, lip balm, sun hoodie
Evening trips have spectacular light, so a camera is a must during evening trips.
Included:
- Climbing Helmet
- CLimbing Harness
- Safety Equipment & Ropes
- Climbing Shoes
If you have your own climbing gear, please feel free to bring it.
