Hello!

I just moved from the Atlanta area to Beverly, MA. I climb regularly at Stoneham CRG with my boyfriend. As great as that is, I'd like to meet some badass womxn in the climbing community. I enjoy lead (5.9), top rope (5.10), and bouldering (v3). In parentheses is what I currently climb, but I'd be happy to climb with anyone at any level! Beginner/intermediate over here   trying to learn and improve. I'm closest to the Stoneham CRG location, but I'd be willing to drive to another gym if need be. Once the weather clears up I definitely look forward to climbing outside. Let me know if you'd like to climb sometime, yay for making friends!

I’m not super close (In CT) and nursing a pretty bad injury, but I’m looking forward to exploring some new climbing spaces and would gladly meet up with you at some point when I’m healthy. I don’t mind the drive and lived in Boston for a while so I know the area a bit.

Lydia, that sounds great! I'm also willing to travel on weekends. Sorry to hear about your injury. I hope you heal well! Keep me posted.

I will! Definitely looking forward to healing and climbing again. I might be a little rusty to start but it’s about the fun of it then

Hi Chelsea!  I am finally starting back at the climbing gym & looking for climbing partners!  I have a membership to MetroRock & can make it really to any of the locations (Newburyport, Littleton, or Everett)!  I enjoy lead climbing (haven't been leading the gym lately due to a lack of partner but would probably lead at a 5.7-5.8 to start) and top roping (5.10-5.11) the most (though I can boulder, just not well!).  I'd definitely love to climb outside as well once the weather gets nicer - I can lead both sport & trad (including multi-pitch).  Let me know if you could climb at MetroRock & when you'd be free!

Hey Chelsea (and Katherine and Lydia)!! I just joined the Stoneham CRG a couple days ago and am looking for partners, too!!! Haven’t climbed in a while (or much of anything) so super weak and rusty, but really want to get back into it. Would be doing super easy grades since I have zero strength at the moment. If you’re cool belaying a middle aged woman as she struggles up an 8, I’d be happy to tr and lead belay you on harder stuff.

Erika— I’m in the same space and have a broken ankle to recover from so when I’m back at it I’ll huff and puff up those 8s with you and cheer you on!

Hi Chelsea, I'm looking for climbing partners at crg Stoneham as well! I don't lead climb, but prefer top roping (climb at 5.9 or 5.10). If you're still looking for some people to climb with let me know!

Hi! I actually just froze my CRG membership for the summer since I have found myself outside way more often    Hit me up if you ever want to climb outdoors!! Bouldering, top rope or sport. I'll probably unfreeze my membership in September or October

Hey ladies, would love to climb with any of you! My gym is Metrorock Newburyport (I live in town), but I go up to Rumney often, and also sometimes the local crag in Gloucester or bouldering in pawtuckaway. Let me know if you wanna meet up outdoors or indoors!

Hey ladies! I’m in Cambridge for a little over a month and would be psyched to climb with any/all of you at any of the CRG gyms, or (ideally) to make Rumney missions. Mostly trad and sport but can always be talked into bouldering. I have my car and all my gear here but don’t know anyone to climb with yet!

Hi ladies! So happy I found this thread! Would anyone be interested in climbing in Rumney this weekend or Monday? I’m from Boston but sort of moving around the east coast. Will be in the northeast for a few more weeks. Hit me up if you’re looking for a buddy!

Hi! I’m glad I found this thread. Would anyone like to climb in Rumney on wendsday, Thursday or Friday. I climb 11’s and low 12’s. My focus is on orange crush, new wave but I’m up to climb almost anywhere. 

Just messaged you :)

Hi Chelsea!
what a small, small world. I lived in Atlanta from 2011-January 2020 (Dunwoody, Tucker and North Druid Hills) and climbed at SS.

I lead and have a rope. I live 15 minutes from Stoneham. I just started getting back into climbing and I’m looking for new climbing partners/friends. Please message me if you’d like to meet up and climb this week!

I lead and have a rope and would love to meet up with you to climb inside at CRG or outside (I live 15 minutes from the Stoneham gym.) I just started getting back into climbing and I’m looking for new climbing partners/friends. Please message me if you’d like to meet up and climb!

Hi all -- I'm in Vermont and definitely would love to find more women to climb with. Climbing outside mostly, I can lead belay and lead easy sport stuff (5.5-5.6) but can follow up to 5.9, and looking to improve and learn some draws. Have rope and draws, and down to meet at Rumney on a weekday or in VT. Happy to belay you on your projects and switch off!

Hi Betsy!! That is sooo cool what a small world!   This year/summer has been crazy.. I am IN four weddings (three coming up in September, October, and November) + bachelorette parties, etc. I froze my membership a couple months ago when summer started because I was outside a ton, and to save money for said weddings. I'll probably unfreeze it starting in October! I'll let you know once I do, I'd love to climb!
