Draagun1 Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 My partner flaked on me.Looking for 6-10 days or so. I will be doing the clinics Sat and Sun. but can be down prior to the event or after. I've led sport to 5.9 but have placed very little pro. Have a beginning rack but have usually only followed.Was down in RR last November for 8 days and did 7 pitches and under. Gym climb mid 11's but that's the gym only. Still a novice so need a bit of guidance for RR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsgotime Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 hey, I'm looking for a partner for Red Rocks near that time. I was hoping to be there April 1st-15th. I'm not into the clinics, but would be willing to show up the day after if a partner was lined up. I lead sport in 5.9-5.10 range and lead moderate trad routes comfortably (5.7 range.) I have a small rack as well, but its growing. I'm most interested in doing more moderate trad stuff, but really I just want to get some climbing in. Leading, following, sport or trad, multi pitch its all good. I've never been to RR, so I don't know about the quality of the camping, but I've been told you definately need wheels. I would be great if you wanted to share the rental car costs and camp out. Anyways, I'm 29 from Alaska, climbing off and on for about 6 years. If your interested or if anyone else needs a partner in this time period give me a shout. eric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draagun1 Posted February 28, 2008 Author Share Posted February 28, 2008 Hi Eric I see that you've just started setting pro.Pretty much like me,so don't know if it's a perfect match.Was looking for someone with a bit of experience to do trad with.Sport may be good though.I'll know when I'm going by Sunday.

Sherri Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 If all else fails, you could try hanging out at Panty Wall(a popular sport climbing crag), Newcastle(a toprope/sport crag), Moderate Mecca(a trad/sport crag), or Cannibal(mostly sport). All are pretty easy to locate with a guidebook, usually crowded, and you may find some folks willing to swap belays. You may also end up connecting with some new partners thru the clinics and festival activities. Shoot High_on_Rock a PM. He's usually down there with a pretty cool crowd and might be able to help you out finding some folks to climb with, too. Good luck, Bro!
