TL;DR - Steady sport/boulder partner for Tue/Thu 4:45 to 8:45 every week at ET and Denver Movement when it opens and weekend warrior.

It seems like more and more friends are faded out of climbing, so I am looking for more climbing/training partners. You must be safe, should be fun to be around, and ideally like to try hard. Obviously spot when bouldering and soft and safe catch on rope. Bonus point: eager to train and willing to put in the work/hour.

Schedule seems to always be the hardest part to find a steady partner for me. I have fixed schedule on Tuesday/Thursday 4:45 to 8:45 for gym sessions and free most weekends. I can usually camp Friday/Saturday nights and/or day trip. However, I usually don't like to get home too late on Sunday, think home by 4pm on Sunday.

Ideally you should be able to climb or try at least 11+/12- sport routes. That makes it easier to climb/project outside together. If you can only climb 10s/11s but want to get stronger, we will have the whole winter to get you up to speed, assuming you are willing to put in the effort. If you crush hard, I am willing to follow your program as well.

I only do occasional trad climbing, like few times a year for certain objectives. So if you mostly trad climb, we can still be friends and rope up in the gym. However, it might not work for weekend outdoor.

If you think 3-4 hrs of gym session after work is better workout than rushing out to crag and getting 2 pitches in, you are my kind of guy/girl.

I know perfect is impossible, so none of the above is required, except the safety. Schedule is probably the most important part. If that fits, we can work around the rest. PM if you are interested!!

Thanks for the reply. I am mostly looking for steady gym/weekend partners at the moment, so I am not sure it will work out for you.

I currently train at the dbc and will probably get a membership at movement as well once it opens. Also have traditional weekends off (but can only venture outdoors every other weekend because of my on call sked). PM me or meet me at dbc tonight around 7pm.
