[Climbing Gear Donation.]

Hi,
I am Shehryar Khattak, A 24 years emerging Rock Climber and Artist from Pakistan.

I had been climbing, bolting and drawing from a young age and plan to bring a positive change by supporting the local communities of the Karakoram range, Pakistan through my artwork and expeditions but due to the lack of climbing equipment in the country my cause couldn't reach fulfillment.

I really look forward to gear donations may it be used Haulbags or Pitons any bigwall material. I am happy to send my digital artwork in exchange that you can print on anything I hope someone here would like to become a part of my journey that I had started.

Hoping for a positive response.

Thanks

@JasonG It's a wild place and is in open zone  uncountable virgin peaks and the good thing you don't need a climbing permit.

Welcome Khattak!  Yes, you are a long ways from the Cascade Mountains but you are certainly welcome to post up here.  We have a few big wall climbers on the site and some pretty nice wall climbs in the area (Index, Squamish, Smith Rock, Washington Pass, etc).  You should post up some pictures of the walls in the Karakorum you are looking to climb!  Maybe that will entice someone to visit.

If you are interested in big walling and A5 gear you should also check out the forum on supertopo.com.  There are a lot of Yosemite climbers who post there including John Middendorf who designed the A5 Haulbag and is still making innovative gear (he recently had a kickstarter for a new D4 portaledge).  He also has the site bigwalls.net which is a wealth of info on his gear designs.

Hi, 

I am new to Cascadesclimbers and actually I have never used a forum before so I don't know how it works, so yeah I am Shehryar Khattak a student of product design from Pakistan and I am a rock climber among the very few. We are open to host any big wall climbers who wants to come climb and exchange the knowledge with us.

I have recently started going in to Karakoram to learn big wall art by myself as rock climbing is very new here and we don't have any big wall climber who can take me under the wing, I will be please to make friends here. If you guys want to ask something about climbing or just want to chat please feel free to email me at "sktalkie@gmail.com" or comment below.

 

Thanks.
