Anyone trying to make some plans to head down to Mexico this winter? I’m flexible on any dates!

Yes. Planning two weeks sometime in January.

Might be game...

Well let’s make something happen then. Like I said I have a wide open schedule, I’ll be driving my van. It had extra room for someone to sleep if they want

I'll be there Jan 6 to 24 and looking for partners.

I'm game as well. Would be driving down. Would be great to have a passenger.

Currently in southern Utah/Nevada climbing. Thinking maybe January.

Headed down solo Nov 4-14, staying at Posada’s. If you’re reading this and want to climb some tall stuff, hit me with a PM!

Hi Park
See my confirmed January dates in the message above.  I am an experienced multi pitch climber.  I lead trad to 5.9, sport to 5.10c, boulder V2.  Just finishing up a trip  to Fontainebleau and Kalymnos.  Old guy alert - I'm 65.  I have climbed with much younger partners often and it has worked out well.  Let me know if you decide to go ahead and want to make plans to climb  together.
BTW I tried to make this a pm but the feature doesn't seem to work from my current location.

January 6-34 sounds like a time frame I’d really be looking for. Any idea what the situation may be like with the current social situation we are facing?

Steve Pulver, and others.
I can be in Potrero Chico in either the first or the second week of January.
I am a Dutchie, who is visiting family in Mexico between end of december and 16 january,  but I'd love to get out for a week.
In potrero I('ve) onsight(ed) up to 5.11d, happy to try 5.12 though.
please let me know if interested.

Steven, My plans are more uncertain now, I'll have a better idea of what I'm doing in another month.

Steven Van Benthem · · Unknown Hometown · Joined Dec 2017 · Points: 0

Ok, Steve, let me know!

Anyone interested in making it down for New Years? 

Julien Leclerc · · Québec · Joined Oct 2018 · Points: 0

I will cross the United States from Quebec to go to Potrero Chico. I will leave Quebec on December 10th and make stops in climbing spots with the temperature (red river george, tennesse wall, sandrock, barton creek greenbelt) we should arrive around the first week of January or if the temperature we can not climb the usa we will arrive before. we climb both for 5-6 years. It is a pleasure to meet you.

Yes.  I have some friends that will be down there in early-January, but they're even numbered. I've been down once before and have done most of the long classics including Timewave.  My dates are flexible as I've seen flights in Feb for like $390... which would be ideal.

Ideally, I'm looking for a partner that wants to try Sendero Luminoso with me. Would like to obv hit up all the classics as well and improve time on Timewave (simul-climbing experience would be nice).

Let me know as I'd like to book before the holidays.

Gonna be down DEC 10th-24th. If you want to link up just DM me. Would love to do El Sendero diablo while I’m there! 

James E · · Hermosa Beach, CA · Joined Oct 2012 · Points: 25

Just bumping to see if anyone is looking for partners in the Jan-Feb timeframe.

DECEMBER 13th - JANUARY 10th!

I am located in Flagstaff, AZ. A carpool would be GREAT. I am comfortable taking my car, or being a passenger in yours. Years of climbing experience including huge linkups and long days. Dedicated partner would be great. Message me!

I'll be down at EPC December 13th - Dec 22nd, camping at La Posada I think.

Looking for partners for longer stuff in the 10s range - jungle wall/space boyz looks great. 

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
