This makes my heart so happy! 

I am in Golden and would love to have more slaydies to climb with! I love sport (lead 11s), boulder (project v7) and especially trad (lead 5.8/5.9) and have most of the gear for them. I mostly love being outside and climbing with other women! I am a safety nerd and take safety and communication seriously.

I have every Monday off if that aligns with anyone's schedule. 

Andie had a great idea to start a Group Message to see who is available. 

I think it'd also be cool to pick a random weekend day in the near future, pick a crag and whoever wants to show up can? CCC? Or BoCan? 

If you want to be in a GM, drop your phone number or PM me if you don't feel comfortable posting it.

Hey! So I’ve been climbing for over a decade, I have all the sport climbing gear. I’m kind of a comfy climber and leading 10.d is my favorite. The tallest multi pitch ive done was 10 pitches in Mexico. I used to teach lead climbing classes and I’m an alumni of the UIUC climbing club! Illinois represent!
In the gym I was leading 11.a but haven’t been able to tackle one outside successfully yet. I’m based in Westminster and I’m down to climb all weekends, mondays and all of Fridays!
hope to hear from ya, it seems like this thread has gotten a lot of good feedback. Maybe we can all crag it up together!

I love this thread!  And, I'd love to throw my name out there, too.  

About me:  I'm coming off a life and shoulder injury and am super weak at the moment.  I've been climbing off and on for over 7 years- my stats are listed but really out of date since I didn't update for a while.  At the moment, I'm just stoked to get outside- eventually, back to leading sport (10s and redpointing 11s) and swapping leads on easy trad (up to 5.7).  I have all the gear, including a double rack.  I'm really looking for fun partners who are super safe with great communication skills!  

Location: Based in Denver, so I'd love to find others who want to gym climb in the evenings.  

Schedule: Work during the week, so I'm free for gym climbs in the evenings and outside on the weekends!

Other hobbies/interests: avid runner, hiker, and backpacker.  And, I have a cute puppy if anyone wants to meet up for a pup play date.

Hi all! Love this idea to connect with other lady crushers! Not from Colorado but planning on dirtbagging through Denver for a few weeks in April living out of my car. Have a few friends around to climb with but would love to find more! I lead on sport in the low 11s and just started trad climbing this month. I’m also super down for multipitch. Been climbing all over the last 2 years in the red, horseshoe canyon, Wichita’s, and out in Colorado a few times. I’m a pretty competent, safe climber. Aka I’ve gotten out most of my Gumby mistakes already. PM me if you’d wanna connect and go climbing sometime after April 11th

Anyone able to climb this Friday (4/23) maybe late morning or afternoon?

Hi all,

Thanks for starting this thread. I'm Daisy and I'm looking for female trad climbing partners.

About me: I've been climbing for about 2 years and started trad climbing about a year ago. I can lead trad generally in the 8s and looking to lead more easy trad routes to gain more experience and gradually move up to higher grades. I love cracks and resist getting on sloppy routes. I am a safe and cautious belayer and you will have all my attention when you are my climber. I have a full trad rack and all gear needed.

Location: I live in Boulder. I'll be happy to climb with you in Eldo, North Table, CCC, BoCan or any nearby crags.

Schedule: I work from home so I have a flexible schedule for the most part. I can get out most weekdays.

Looking for: trad climbing partners to gain more experience and get stronger together.

Hi Sarah (and everyone on this post)

Nice to meet you. I am always looking for trad and sport partners. I typically really enjoy climbing in Eldo and want more RMNP days this summer. I have been leading trad since 2016 and sport since 2013. Please let me know if you (or anyone else on here) is psyched. Some of my goals this year in Eldo are sending Rosies, doing some stuff on Longs Peak (Pervertical and Directissma), Days of Heaven, Outer Space, finger lickin good. Those are all stretch goals for me (ranging in the upper 10s and 11s for trad).  Also love going to the creek, and turkey rocks, shelf the black, ten sleep Devils tower.  I have multiple sport projects as well and am always psyched to sport after work on the summer week days especially in Boulder Canyon. I also like to trail run, bike, and backcountry ski.  Would love to climb with new ladies including yourself and happy to belay you on whatever you are psyched on as well :)

Cheers,

Haley. 719-431-6523

Hey Ladies!

Haley Young and I have been climbing together for years. She is an inspirational partner and just an all-around badass babe!

I’m also interested in finding more ladies to climb with in the front range. I’m based out of Boulder and would be psyched to not only find some new partners to push limits with but also to be a steward to this community of women and offer to rally a group of ladies for a day of fun cragging and learning. Been traveling a lot lately and learning all sorts of new ways to fineness my climbing but also my supporting role as a belayer and spotter. I’m so psyched to pass on all that I know and share my passion with other passionate women in the community. I’ll be in Boulder, May 12th - June 3rd. Let me know if anyone has an interest and I’d be psyched to plan an appropriate climbing adventure pending volume of interest and genre of psych.

Sport: 12+
Trad: 5.10

Let push some limits and build this community together!

Hi all,

I'm also psyched to meet 1 or 2 more trad climbing women who have similar goals and styles.

About me: I've been climbing for 6 years, and almost exclusively trad climbing for the last 3. I climb almost entirely for multipitch trad routes and am not particularly interested in sport climbing, with the exception of the occasional winter Shelf day. It's hard to say across the board what grades I climb (because sometimes I'm terrified on 5.8 gear routes and sometimes I send 11s, depending on where it is and who did the FA, haha), but as an average I'm probably about a mid 5.10 trad leader. My favorite places to climb are RMNP (any alpine rock anywhere), Eldo, The Black, Red Rock Canyon (Vegas), the Winds, the Creek, and ice routes. My ideal route is somewhere around 8ish pitches in length. I lead WI3 and am hoping to push into WI4 next season and also would like more psyched women partners who are competent ice climbers. I always wear a helmet, plan ahead, and pride myself on not panicking in bad situations. I am an encouraging attentive belayer and can hold space for your emotions. I also bake excellent cookies and pies ;)

Location: Live in Denver but have no problem driving long distances for even just a weekend of climbing (I regularly drive to the Creek for just 1.5 days of climbing)

Schedule: weekends free, some weekday flexibility if I get my work done, which varies by the week. I am a physician assistant, so I like to think I'm a good person to climb with in case there is a medical emergency.

Looking for: Other competent trad climbing women at a similar level who are psyched on alpine days and multipitch routes.  I value clear communication, nonreactive/respectful/calm partners, and being able to think clearly and not lose it when a situation becomes dangerous or even deviates from an optimal plan. If we are climbing something big or in the alpine, I value efficiency as much as possible, but if there's a lower consequence day (ie: Eldo) I enjoy a slightly slower pace to watch the birds swooping and appreciate the wildflowers.

Hi all! My good friend Rachel posted something similar last year that got a lot of traction, so I am hoping to refresh it for this season! I know I am not the only one looking for other lady crushers to climb with, so I am hoping we can use this thread to connect with one another.

About me: I've been climbing for about two years, enjoy sport, trad, multipitch, and boulders, & have gear for all of the above. I am comfortable leading up to 5.11- sport, but really looking to push it this season with the right people. Still pretty new to leading on gear, but super psyched to learn and improve! I've followed into the 10/11's and am never too proud to work on my aiding skills (: Down to boulder anything that looks cool. 

I am a safe, reliable, and considerate partner, happy to carry my share of the weight on approaches, always on time (+/- 15 mins..), and overall just super stoked to get out and climb! Especially with other females who share a good attitude towards climbing but are still looking to progress. I love projecting, but also enjoy a casual day of cragging and climbing whatever looks interesting - whether it's trying a five star route or doing a first ascent on a pile of choss.

Location: Based in Denver, open to further and longer outings/trips as we get to know each other. I typically climb around CCC and Eldo during the week and further out on the weekends. 

Schedule: Flexible during the weekdays depending on my work schedule, free on the weekends

Looking for: Other fun, safe, and reliable partners with similar goals and stoke! I am also really interested in progressing my trad skills, so someone who is willing to partner up with a beginner leader is a plus. In exchange I can provide homemade snacks, soft catches, and lame jokes. Would love to do more adventure-type alpine climbs once the weather and my skills improve. 

Other hobbies/interests: yoga, biking, sourdough, animals

Please feel free to PM if you're interested in meeting up! And/or feel free to post something down below so other lady crushers can reach out to you as well. I hope this provides a space for all of us to connect and climb!! Thanks (:

Hi everyone! Anyone looking to get out this week once the weather clears up? I have a fairly open schedule for the next several weeks, so please feel free to message me if you’re free! Just looking for a safe catch and good attitude (:

Thanks

Great thread.  I may have found some partners already but just in case......

I'm not new to climbing (30 years experience) but I've had some health problems so it's been a while since I've gotten out. Lost my main partner via a divorce.  I'm fairly consistent in my ability to follow 10's and 11's but haven't lead in a while. Still knocking the rust off my lead head.  I climb trad, sport, and a little ice.  I'm extremely safe and reliable.   I have Wednesday and Sunday off.  My number is 303.880.7633.  Keeping it short and sweet.

Loving this! I might reach out to a few of you personally, but here’s my info as well:

I’m a gym climber from Southern California, traveling with my husband in our camper van throughout Arizona, New Mexico, and Colorado. I can lead climb and belay (sport), and I’m picky about safety. Although, I’ve only done a little climbing outside, and I’m still learning (I can lead 5.10s and some 11s comfortably in the gym). I would love to sync up with some female climbers when I’m in Colorado towards the end of May. My schedule is wide open and I’m really wanting to make climbing a priority while we are on the road, so please hit me up if you’re interested!

Hi!

I am in Denver also looking for some lady climbers! I’m pretty new to climbing, have been top roping 5.10s in the gym, crack climbed in Moab and Turkey rocks 5.6-5.10, and some slabs in Moab. I’m looking to gain more experience outside and eventually learn to lead. I would love to learn from you and climb with you! I want to climb with safe partners and push myself. Feel free to message me and maybe we can get outside together 414-588-8991

Hi All,

I'm Lucie. I'm looking for a fully vaccinated partner to climb this week-end (5/22-5/23).

I have 20 years of experience, mostly trad and ice, but also some sport. I am a little rusty, not having climbed much rock the past two years, but right now I can lead up to 10a (well protected sport) and easy trad (5.7). I can follow harder pitches. I am very safe and fully vaccinated.  Usually, I climb with my husband but he is injured at the moment. 

I am located in Boulder. I am pretty much open to anything, sport or trad; I don't boulder though. I just want to get out climbing and have fun!

If you want to learn more about me, please check my website: www.ericandlucie.com

Please PM me if you are interested in meeting up.

Hi! Slowly breaking back into the sport after a few years hiatus. Sport experience on easy grades. Would like to get into multi-pitch and trad. Have my own gear (just for sport leads). Weekend availability, in the Springs, S. Platte, and beyond.

Hi all! I'm glad this exists! I am always looking for someone to establish a solid belaytionship with :)  

I've been climbing for about 5 years, but last year my fitness went to crap. I'm currently getting back into summer shape, ha! I'm looking for someone who has experience on gear and wants to do some trad climbing not just in the front range but around Independence pass, RMNP, and more this summer. I have this summer off, so I'd like to do longer trips out. I'm also down for daytrips. I'd say I'm most comfortable on moderate trad leading, and can follow you if you want to push harder. I've taken some courses for trad and learned how to climb with my friend, who's a guide. Let me know if you'd like to maybe meet up at the gym or somewhere in the Denver area! 

Caitlin Sotola · · Boulder, CO · Joined Jun 2017 · Points: 60

Awesome!

Me: just moved to boulder from Brooklyn. I lead up to low 5.12 sport (when I’m in shape), follow trad (not a strong leader), and boulder V0-V4ish. Been climbing since 2016 and psyched to climb all the things out here!

Location: Boulder (will travel to climb anywhere on weekends

schedule: weekdays post 5-6pm may work but mainly weekends 

Looking for: safe, psyched ladies who are pushing grades and focused on sport climbing primarily. Down for other adventures too!

Other interests: biking, yoga, live music

Would love to be added to the GM for partnering!

Hello everyone. I'm starting to get back into climbing after a long hiatus. Cliimbed a lot in the 90s and early 2000s, but for most of the last 5-6 years I might get out once or twce a year. Until a month ago, it'd been about 3 years since I climbed. I'm pretty much a trad climber and ice climber. Also do some aid and alpine. I like to climb mainly in Eldo and the Flatirons, with occassional jaunts to RMNP. I used to guide ice back in the day, too, but just want to find some reliable partners to climb with. For now, until I get more mileage back and have my cliimbing head back, I'd mainly look to lead moderate gear routes up to 5.7 or so. 

I'm a paramedic and a ski patroller, so my schedule is very variable, but I alwayys have some weekdays free.  PM me if you might want to get out with my old bones :)

Nicki Manzanares · · near Boulder, CO · Joined Apr 2017 · Points: 0

Thank you for starting this thread!

About me: I've been climbing for about three or four years (gym and outside). I started so I could spend more time with my sons, but little did I know, or they realize, that I would get totally hooked on the sport.  I am fully vaccinated as of February!  In the gym, I am top roping high 10s-11a and leading up to 10b.  Outside, I climb sport (up to 9s) and top rope (10a on up). I do follow easier trad and would like to get into some more multipitch.  

I am a safety-first climber and belayer (TR and lead) who is always open to learning new techniques and sharing ideas. I don't mind longer approaches, and carry all my gear. 

Location: Based just outside of Boulder. My primary gym is The Spot Louisville (used to be EVO), but can go to others. 

Schedule: Flexible - I'm retired!  I prefer outside, but if we are short on time or weather is not cooperating, inside works just as well!

Looking for: Other partners who value safety, love adventures, and enjoy sharing excitement in climbing and life. I also appreciate partners who are patient while I work on a route. I'm not projecting anything, but I do take my time when I am climbing.  One big thing: I bring a lot of stoke to the table, so be prepared. I celebrate every climb as a unique experience and don't focus on the send.  It's all about the journey, not about the destination. No pressure!

Other hobbies/interests: yoga, cycling, golf

Please feel free to PM if you're interested in meeting up!

Heya ladies! Great thread. Also, very interested in more female climbing partners!

About Me:  Have been sport climbing off and on for about 8 years, ice climbing for 2 years and am looking to expand my skills toward more trad and multi-pitch stuff. I have followed 12-15 trad routes (including alpine multi-pitch) but want to spend more time placing gear myself. I have a single rack, many quick-draws, and a 70m rope. Happy to be out in nature and climbing with people, so anywhere (and any type of climbing) we end up doing is often great with me!  Will provide a safe belay, solid communication, snacks and lots of stoke! Also, hold a WFA cert and plan to get more training as being a safe and competent partner is very important to me!

Location: Loveland/Fort Collins area but am happy to commute mostly anywhere!

Availability: Fri-Sun anytime for outdoor climbing or T/TH 6-8pm at Ascent Climbing and Fitness (FoCo) during the week if you want to gym-climb 

Looking for: Safe, supportive, communicative and experienced belayer/partner as well as a potential mentor for trad climbing. Interested in mixed climbing, too.

Other interests: Trail-running, hiking, biking, skiing, adventure, travel, live music, learning, yoga, beer (also, very food-motivated)

Feel free to DM me or text 970-488-9601
