Underused garage wall in Portland needs climbers

[nat]

I have a 16 foot tall, 12 foot wide climbing wall in my garage, located at NE 12th and NE Ainsworth. It overhangs about 20 degrees and has a bunch of clean mattresses beneath. Lots of holds up, lots of holds in boxes. All it needs is a regular bunch of climbers.

 

I don't care how hard you crank, so long as you like to pull down hard and get passionate about indoor bouldering.

 

These days I can usually just barely get up the V4s at The Circuit. The Circuit is too far to drive for me. I'd love to work V2s all the way up to V6s, but if you want to come over and commandeer the wall for V8s, I won't complain.

 

I have a 4 year old daughter, so kids are welcome to tag along so long as they can follow the only rule: stay off the mats unless it's your turn.

 

Email me (mcnattyp@yahoo.com) to hook up. I'm available days, eves, nights, weekends, any time. I don't do rope climbing any more so if you're looking for an outdoor ropes climbing partner, I'm not it.

Hi Nat! Good to see you got more holds up there. You should have said something in the winter as I'm sure a bunch of us would have flocked there like roosting chickens.

 

As it just warmed up, I'm gonna be outside, (easier on the old joints) feel free to join in with us after work anytime, I think Tue-and thurs are the days.

This constitutes my semi-annual invitation to climb on my garage wall. Since last time, I've added a ton more holds, 4 more mattresses, and I'm working on another flat wall. My daughter is 4.5 now and climbs about halfway up. Kids welcome.

 

Days, evenings, nights, weekdays, weekends. Northeast 12th and Ainsworth. Email mcnattyp@yahoo.com for details.
