Post title says it all, but I'm going to be down in the Gunks area for a week (April 20-27) and am looking for partners! I've never climbed in the Gunks before and don't really know what to expect. That being said, the reputation for sandbagged grades gives me a little pause. I wanna start small, so I'm down for any moderate classics. I can also follow harder stuff. Typically solid in the 10+ and 5.11 range on lead, sport and trad, so we'll see how that translates to Gunks' grades. Full double rack to #5 and set of draws, plenty of ropes.
Also, the chief driver for my visit is to take my rock guide course through AMGA. If you'd be into tacking on some practice with systems/rescue scenarios, that would be super helpful (and possibly mutually beneficial).
Feel free to respond direct to this post, or reach out to my cell: (802) 595 1454.
