Weekday experienced partners for RMNP/other alpine (trad or bouldering)

Looking for additional experienced partners for regular weekday outings to RMNP and other alpine areas.

Trad objectives are mostly long routes in the 5.9-5.11 range in RMNP, but open to shorter/harder/easier lines or other areas, as long as the climbing looks good.

Bouldering would ideally be V4-6 volume or V7-9 projecting in RMNP, Guanella, Blue Sky or any other alpine areas.

I'm down for very early starts and driving up to 2.5h from Golden, as well as camping/bivy as needed.

I have a pretty open weekday schedule these days, hit me up if you have the time and are psyched for any of the above!

Hey Rafael,

I'm in a similar position with availability weekdays. I'm mostly looking at 5.8-5.10 routes in RMNP, but I could definitely follow 5.11. Message me and we can organize something.

+1 to Enrico, we have alpine climbed together, he is quick, efficient, and reliable.

I’m in RMNP and looking for a partner for 7/23-7/25. Looking to do either Southeast Corner on The Saber, The Barb on Spearhead, or anything else in that realm. Down to get up real early and move fast.

Hi Rafael,

I'm free most weekdays in August and would love long objectives in RMNP including stuff on the Diamond, Glacier Gorge, etc.  I live in Golden and could start getting out next Friday as I'll be on a road trip for the next 5 days.  Text me at 970-441-5098 Rick

I'm looking to get on a lot (more) of Alpine Rock this season. Sometimes available weekdays. I can lead 5.10 in the alpine, 5.11 trad at the crag, 5.12- sport.

Routes I've ticked in RMNP: Southeast corner of the saber, the Barb, Direct South Ridge of Notchtop, Jackin' the Johnson (followed crux), Northeast Ridge of Sharkstooth (simul), Blitzen Ridge (solo).

Routes I'd like to do: The Casual Route, Directissima, Southwest Corner of the Saber, Southwest Corner of the Petit

Down to follow on harder stuff. Especially if it's Pervertical Sanctuary...

Hi Guy!  Nice to meet!

These sound like all good stuff.  I'd be up for several of them, and I've done multiple and would be happy to do them again (Casual, Pervertical - though I might hang a bit). Weather this next week looks pretty unstable.  Let me know some days that work for you and we might end up going someplace where the weather might be better or shorter approaches like the S. Platte.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
