Hey guys, I'm getting my feet wet in the world of trad. If there are any experienced guys on here willing to let me call them up and pick their brain about some stuff I would love that. If anyone is interested, post an email/number I can reach you at. Thanks guys. |

only if it is about gear |

Buy and read Freedom of the Hills or a trad specific book. You really need to go climb with someone as a follower for a while. Gear discussions are plentiful on the forums. |

Yep. Learning some solid basics like the 3-4 standard anchor setups (Quad, 3 leg sliding x, 3 leg figure 8, 2 bolt sliding x or figure 8) and climbing with someone that knows what they are doing can go a long way. |

Hello Ryan, |

I wonder if the first step in trad is selling your trad gear... |
