pdk Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 (edited) About me and who I'm looking for Wow. I never thought I'd ever find myself doing this. But it's just so hard to meet people these days. Usually you meet people at work or through friends, but that just isn't working. And I'm just not into the bar scene anymore. I know it's cliche, but I love long walks in the woods. I'm fit. I have a fair amount of free time. And I'm highly motivated and committed. I like rocks. But I like ice better. Especially in the mountains. I've got a fair amount of experience, but I certainly don't know everything and am no hard man. Yet? You - well, you better be at least reasonably fit. I'm not into cults, but I guess you can crossfit. Just don't expect me to. You know enough about climbing not to get killed, and maybe you know a lot. I'm more interested in someone willing to get after it, is motivated to climb a lot, and has the time/ability to do that. You're also willing to suffer, 'cause you know that's where the fun's at. About me hair: brown eyes: brown best feature: my small feminine hands body art: one strategically placed tattoo sports and exercise: climbing, all types; road biking; skiing exercise habits: as much as possible daily diet: I eat my veggies interests: Ptarmagin Ridge, Triple Couloirs, Stuart Glacier Headwall, Mt. Waddington, West Ridge of Hunter, West Rib of Denali, Canadian Rockies, North Cascades, North Ridge of Stuart, Adams Glacier, etc., etc. About my date hair: any eyes: any body type: fit drink: definitely relationships: single, divorced, open relationship have kids: hopefully not want kids: no time soon turn-ons: cold snaps, sharping tools, driving, caffeine, border crossings turn-offs: south sides, dropped gear, careers, not chipping in for gas In my own words In all seriousness, I'm tired of fucking around. I've been half-assing this climbing thing for years now. Getting out in short spurts, starting to get somewhere and then something gets in the way. The most frustrating is maintaining consistent and motivated partners who have similar interests. I know everyone has a real life, but I'm tired of losing partners to wives, kids, careers, etc. Its time to put up, and shut up for me. I got into climbing because of the mountains. I lost sight of that somewhere along the way and the cragging became an end in and of itself. I want to get back into the mountains. Climb as much possible, and work towards Alaska and the Canadian Rockies. Realistically, I'm looking for a group of people who are sincerely motivated to climb. I don't care if you don't have much experience. I'm not going to teach you how to use crampons and swing a tool. You already know how to do that. But I'll take motivation over skill any day. I've spent years climbing with people who climb much harder than me, and while I've gotten to do some great stuff, I didn't do any of it personally, and I've missed out on all the intermediate stuff necessary for my own development. Until I can do it myself, I'm done with that. If you're interested, PM me. We'll get out. Somewhere. Soon. My only limit is no south sides. I've put in my time slogging. I'm open to anything else. Your match, Donnie Edited April 4, 2008 by pdk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
