| I'm looking for a partner to climbed with on the front range each week. Must be reliable & safe. If can lead 5.10 or above would be a plus but not requirement. |  |

| hi there, i am also looking for a dedicated trad partner, someone who doesn't let skiing, bimbos, or drugs and alcohol get in the way of climbing and doesn't bitch about long approaches or a nip in the air. i live on 43rd and federal blvd, i am available to climb from 1600-dark and all day saturday and sunday, every week. reliable, safe, 5.10 is my limit on lead, for now.

PR--There is no place for ego in climbing...hence the guideline, don't be a jerk. If you don't want to climb with him, don't. (and if you don't want to come across that way, they provide this nice little edit button with two clicks :) Everyone is allowed to be able to ask for what they want. And we all are welcome to say no to those requests. Problems only occur when we judge each other according to our own ideas of perfection. I'd love it if this site continued to be nonjudgemental, as I have appreciated the great people I've met so far!
peace --- Bruce and Nandu--I am also interested in motivated trad partners. Feel free to email me when you are going to get out! |  |

Some people sit at home watching life on the tube. Some read about and others live it. So he got in a jam, not life threatening if he stays put sucks it up and gets a bit cold. Smart or blindly rap into the dark. Oh he could have played a video game and been totally safe. Two weekends ago he did his first tower, penji, Aid, free on crumbly desert rock ending the climb with his first tyrolealen traverse. I guess he should have paid his dues and climbed for a few more years more before doing all that. my2cents |  |

| Wow, the Colorado 'Looking for Partners' threads are serious stuff. I'd love to stay and watch it develop, but I'm sure there's some friendly people looking for partners in the California forums that I need to tell to f-off. |  |
