Canyoning around Victoria

I've gotten into canyoning more and more over the past couple of years, and living in Vic makes that a difficult type of adventure.

Together with a friend of mine, we've decided to publish the details of the the trips we've found to allow others the experience themselves.

The final PDF has now been sent to the printers and we are expecting to get the first print run in about a months time. In the meantime we've made a page for pre-orders:

I've attached a preview of one of the described canyons!

@icefest
Hey all,

I just wanted to reach into this thread for some insight. I've finally freed up some time for some adventures based out of Mt Beauty and was reading up on canyons in Vic.
Excitedly found this book and now this thread but I also found this review on google and I thought you all might have some insight into this.

The main eye raiser is some question marks around some bolts and rappel lengths.

Keen to get into it and sort the mud from the water.

Cheers!
