alexm Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 (edited) Hello, I would like to learn how to climb trad. A friend of mine who posts on CC.com suggested that I offer to become someone's belay slave in exchange for instruction on how to place gear, etc. I've been climbing for a few years now. I have been leading on sport (inside & outside) for over a year. So to summarize, I'm a noob. But I would like to become a better climber, both on rock and on ice/snow. There are really two things that I would like to learn. First, how to place gear so that I can start alpine climbing. Second, I would like to learn crevice rescue skills. So if anyone is interested, please either respond or PM me. I live in Seattle, WA. Thanks, alex Edited August 1, 2008 by alexm Quote
hafilax Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 It helps if you let people know where you are located. Quote
Wakaranai Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 Alex- Im looking for a partner for Sunday, cragging or "alpine light" at WA pass. Id be happy to show you anything I know. Crevise rescue/self rescue would not be my strong points but if you want some critique of your gear placements or building anchors then I consider myself solid with that. At least my gear had always held the fall 50% of the time -Brandon Quote
