Protocol for climbing in Werribee	16-Jun-2015 At 7:31:31 AM	Ben_E

Some good advise above (along with the, er, somewhat more free-form replies). No permit/qualifications required. Joining a club or having a more experienced mentor is a good way of learning without having to make all the mistakes firsthand. Failing that, get yourself John Long's "How to rock climb" book (or some similar introductory book) and read it. Fundamentals of setting up anchors etc are at least as important as knowing how to tie knots. Don't listed to the nay-sayers, in a recent survey nearly 7 out of 10 climbers preferred climbing at Werribee Gorge to rubbing dog excrement on their faces. At the very least, in good weather it beats the gym. Have a blast.
