texplorer Posted February 16, 2002 Posted February 16, 2002 A few thoughts on this 3 page post:1) If you have a chance to take a roadtrip and don't take it you are not a climber. You are an REI buyin, pataguchi kid lookin to impress the girlies but without the true cohones to live the life. 2) There are few female posters here because of the raucous behavior we have seen exhibited on this topic. The truth is we would all be wanting to jump in your harness if we knew you were a little 5.12 crack climbing hottie. In other words ignore our dumbass comments (unless of course your looking for a 20-30 something year old, mediocre climbing, Old English swig'in guys seething with testosterone). 3)Yo rocks and I'll see you all there!

texplorer Posted February 16, 2002 Posted February 16, 2002 Oh Alicia, My ex-girlfriend lives in vancouver WA and is always looking for a beginner like herself to go climbing on weekends at Smith or whereever. If you want her email or phone just let me know. Quote
Maurice Posted February 17, 2002 Posted February 17, 2002 I would be more than happy to learn a few things from a nice female. In fact I would prefer it. Please send me an email and a picture never hurts either. Oh and the climbing thing too, mention something about that. Quote

What's the deal? No I never had someone haul my ass up a mountain as a beginner. I learned by staying on comfortable climbs and learning and reading. I figured out shit by doing it. They guy I learned with was a newbie just like I am. I learned how to place pro by leading cracks. The only thing I resent is your approach......... Quote
wydrav13 Posted February 18, 2002 Posted February 18, 2002 mikey chill drink a i was just wondering what the new teenage pop culture slang was. but anyways i hear the proms coming up? you better get ready Quote
mikeadam Posted February 18, 2002 Posted February 18, 2002 You're right dude, that was oughtta line. Beers on me when I head your way. Quote
Uncle_Tricky Posted February 18, 2002 Posted February 18, 2002 I personally don't mind climbing with newbies some of the time, cause I like to lead. And when you're the one leading, you get to decide what to climb! Quote
AlpineK Posted February 18, 2002 Posted February 18, 2002 I like torturing new climbers by spending whole days climbing chimneys and offwidths. The more you bleed the more fun I'm having. On a more serious note (not that there isn't some truth to what I said above) When I first started climbing on my own I was climbing with a friend who was also a total rookie. We made mistakes, but we both had a good time. Now that I have more experience I enjoy occasionally climbing with newbies, but I would loose it if I went on the road for three months with any male or female who expected me to lead everything and pay most of the bills. Good luck Alicia, but try and find a partner who is at about at your ability level. It will work out better. And if you want to go to Index for a day I know some good ow's Quote
chelle Posted February 25, 2002 Posted February 25, 2002 So Rodeo, in case you are still uncertain about which path to take. Choose climing bum! Thailand is great and the cliffs are amazing. Been here a few days and already thinking of extending. Quote
