im still learning a bit, but im solid on my belay and rope management skills. i've been climbing for the last year, but all indoors at gyms. i have all my own basic equipment (belay device, harness, helmet, shoes, lockers and non-lockers) and some other stuff like webbing and acc. cord for building anchors.

if anyone is going climbing, and would like a belay partner or a third wheel to help lug stuff, let me know. i'd like to start getting outside to climb.

What gym have you been mainly climbing at?

I may need a partner for Sunday, probably go to Lumpy Ridge if your interested.

at the CSU gym lately. i started out at miramont, but since CSU is free, im there now.

oh, i have experience belaying lead climbers, not just top roping, and i have some limited experience leading easy stuff, but im not really comfortable leading yet.

Ah. Well I've never been to the flatirons either, so that's definitely not me.
