locker system at Araps?? 4-May-2014 At 10:21:30 PM Wollemi

Dear WesternVictoriaClimbingClubMember,

You could have immedately recovered from from your 'very annoying and embarassing occurence' of forgetting the tent, by immediately sourcing nearby comfy accommodation in Natimuk.

Sydney Bush Walkers own a riverside property quite some way from Sydney. Can the WVCC do something with a tiny property very nearby to Araps?

What do you think of me storing ice-climbing gear below Mt Twynam, instead of skiing uphill into Blue Lake for camping and ice-climbing with a 28kg pack. Or leaving my XC ski gear in Cooma instead of taking it home - what if I can't get down there, then things fall into place and I get an invite to go on a ski trip to NZ?
What do you think of me storing a sea-kayak in Port Welshpool or Foster for the next time I think about doing a lap of Bass Strait? - but I live in the Blueys and would miss the much closer Sydney Harbour.
Your thoughts are appreciated about carting our outdoor gear around - but are nowhere near new, nor practical, with respect to Public Land.
Or otherwise; you are back at home, swept out your trailer and got your feet up in the loungeroom while some of us still don't have the border in sight.

Natimuk - Mt Arapiles, Summit Rd 10.5km
Ballarat - Natimuk 215 km
Bendigo - Natimuk 240 km
Melbourne - Natimuk 330 km
Sydney - Natimuk 1100 km These are one way distances.
