Hi, I'm Dan, a 37 year old dude looking for a new sport and/or trad partner since my long term climbing partner is moving to Arizona. I've been leading sport for about 13 years (up to 5.11b) and leading trad for about 6 years (up to 5.9). I prefer multipitch alpine climbs with long approaches to cragging, and prefer the wild and chossy climbs in the Olympics to the popular spots with better rock. I don't necessarily seek out the hardest routes I can climb, mainly just adventurous routes, even if the grade is low. I'm big on safety and read up on self rescue and building good anchors for fun. My current gym is Vertical World. Down to meet up there to see if we'd climb well together. I also have a fair amount of glacier travel and crevasse rescue experience, including formal training by the Climbing Rangers at Mt Rainier NP, and having worked on glaciers.

Hi, I'm looking for a partner for skiing/splitboarding the Coleman-Deming or Boulder Glacier route on Baker sometime this spring. I splitboarded the Emmons a few years ago, did the DC route (not skiing) twice, and do glacier surveys for work with USGS at South Cascade Glacier. AIARE1 and trained in crevasse rescue from the NPS Rainier Climbing Rangers. I know the outlook is bleak with covid, but I'm hoping the trailheads start opening up in May.

Hey, I would be interested in joining you. I splitboarded the Emmons a few years ago, did the DC route (not skiing) twice, and do glacier surveys for work with USGS at South Cascade Glacier. AIARE1 and trained in crevasse rescue from the NPS Rainier Climbing Rangers. Let's chat some more about it if you're still thinking about it.
