  1. Just posted this. Do you have weekday availability? - Brett
  2. Forgot to mention my interest in digital media/photography/documentary. I'd like to do some storytelling along with climbing this year. Trip reports for sure.
  3. Hey guys and gals. Long time reader, first time poster. Actually it feels like all I do is read these days...and work. Which brings me to the point of this post: I’m looking to change that. Now. Finding regular partners is the next step. A little about me: I’m 27, graduated from Western with my B.A. in Journalism. And if I’m being honest, I feel I’m lacking a bit in climbing experience. TONS of backpacking experience, but not counting scrambling, Baker is my only real summit. Twice in college via the Coleman Glacier. I truly fell in love with the mountains then, but lack of transportation, paired with homework and bills stifled my climbing goals. Thankfully, I’m now in a position where I can really get at it. I’ve contemplated AAI’s Mountaineering and Leadership series, but $10k would pay for A LOT of gas and beer pursuing climbing independently. I’m a pretty laid back guy, get along with most everyone. I’m serious when I have to be, sarcastic and goofy most other times. I’ve traveled all over the world, but am trying to really familiarize myself with what’s in my backyard for a change. I live in Seattle, work Thursday - Sunday mornings. I’m usually done by 4 and can be ready to climb by 5 Sunday. That’s 3 1/2 days a week. Plus I just bought an awesome 1991 Chevy camper van that is just begging for some trips into the mountains. All I need are partners. Mentors really. Anyone out there looking to climb every week? Gas is on me. We can split the beer. - Brett
  4. The catch is...I've never done this before. I backpack a lot, rock climb every once in a while, and have always wanted to try my hand at mountaineering. I was supposed to go on a trip with the WWU Outdoor Center but the trip filled up before I could sign up. And I don't want to wait until next year. So, the question is, does anyone want to take me out and teach me the ropes? If you're slightly interested, send me a pm and we can talk about details. I'm positive I will love every minute of the climb and hopefully it will turn into something I do regularly. Let me know. By the way, I live in Everett. Brett
