Hey y'all, looking for a trad partner for Western NC, I'm particularly interested in easy (5.5-5.8) multipitch at Looking Glass or Linville Gorge. I'll have a long weekend Nov 8-11 so I'm hoping to climb then, but I'm also looking for people to climb with this fall in general as I am usually able to make a long weekend out of any weekend.
About me: Sport climber for a while and somewhat new trad climber from Tennessee, I'm comfortable leading 5.7 (and sometimes 5.8) and I've been leading single pitch trad in Tennessee for a little bit now and I'm hoping to break into some of the multipitch routes that North Carolina has to offer. I have experience with multipitch/building gear anchors/belaying from above/etc but not a ton, and I have never climbed in the area so I'm hoping to link up with someone who is more familiar. I'm a very safety conscious person and I'm hoping to push myself a bit and have fun.
If you're interested let me know on here or text me at (248) 701 2390.
While I haven’t done any multi pitch we have ship rock in Boone that has good single pitch trad routes, I’d be willing to lead or follow on some moderate stuff I’ve followed 5.8 and 5.10 and there is a classic 5.7 called edge of a dream we could do. I might have plans this weekend but we can swap numbers also if your set on or prefer like to do multipitch id be down too but don’t have to much experience and know what crags/routes to start with but I could find out.
