Auckland Section Upcoming Trips
As well as the planned trips programme below, we are also trying to encourage people to let other Alpine Club members know of trips they are planning at short notice, e.g.deciding on a Thursday "Hey the weather forecast looks great for the weekend, let's go to climbing!" In order to facilitate getting these sorts of trips known we are going to make some changes to the website, but initially we'll just set up a group email list of people that are interested in hearing about these short notice trips. So if you're keen, send us an email and we'll add you to the list.
Email the Trip Organiser (trips@aucklandclimber.org.nz) if you have a suggestion for a trip or would like to lead one.
See the Trip Organiser Guidelines to get an idea of what's involved in organising a trip and the Alpine Trip Difficulty section on the Trips page for an explanation of the grading of trips.
