I'm moving to Seattle from New Orleans in May 08, obviously a decent change in attitude/altitude;  have done a fair amount of backpacking, climbed a couple 14'ers in CO, and climbed Rainier w/ RMI in the past...  Looking to take it to the next level, really learn mountaineering, also would love to find a roommate with similar interests...  anybody out there interested or with any input?  I'll be working at UW med ctr, so I need to live relatively close to the U-district.
