Like i said, i know little of their organization...but for a rank beginner, some structure could be ok? Again, i'm speaking from ignorance...she'd probably outgrow them rapidly, my guess...
U r right...i'm more poking fun at you...
I did suggest she go to clinics at the VW, not just the gym in general...several of the employees there are fairly knowledgeable...and they can point someone in the right direction...
Either way, this is a tough one to just venture out as a complete beginner into an activity that can potentially kill you...Perhaps the mountaineers aren't such a bad proposition after all (flamesuit on...i know nothing about them or their organization) for a complete beginner...
Good points all, Matt. Further, on this board there is a way to check people out before you climb with them through third parties on this site.
as an "official third party reviewer"...don't ever go out on the crag w/ Greg_W...sketchy sketchy...russian roulette...
Matt...i was suggesting the gym so she could MEET these people...
I agree with Matt, and bear in mind that RumR is a raging alcoholic and somewhat of a sleeping pill abuser. I haven't heard of too many people meeting people at the gym to go climb outdoors. Plenty of good partners to be found here...fuck the gym.
ahhh greggie...you freakin' kill me...hahahaha
GYM RULEZ GUNS SUCK!
trollin trollin' trollin'
How come they never have a guys only climbing setup?? Not that i'd want one, but w/ an air to equality that women's only thing smacks me as not right...
Best thing to do. Whatever you do, stay away from the Moutaineers; there are plenty of willing souls on this website to show you the ropes for beer and food.
and even how to do laundry
What Jason said is on the mark...ignore the idiots here...go to the gym...there are usually "clinics" where you can also meet folks just starting out...
How'd you like the buttcheeking?
buttcheeking? Ha...grabbin' ass is asspuckering to say the least...feet pasted on flaky shite, hanging onto ass...what fun!!!
