Im not a troll so be gentle :)

I have been to Lemmon once to climb and want to get back - I dont know the area at all but would love to come down in Feb to get on some of the rock... I have been exploring it through the sites and have found the area of the utmost interest.

Anyone interested in sharing a climb or two?

Im respectful, environmentally conscience and can keep a secret "wink"

Thanks and climb safe!

I'll climb. I have lived in PHX for a year and have only been down there once and didn't climb. I'm looking to do as much trad as possible. I'm also open for Cochise Stronghold. I have "Squeezing the Lemon II" but havn't had much time to look over it. Are there lower elevation climbs there that are good in the winter?

Yeah, there are plenty of lower elevation and south facing crags that are perfect right now. In Squeezing the Lemmon or here on mountain project check out - Windy Point (a little higher up, but south facing and sunny), Jailhouse Rock, Forgotten Wall, Hairpin Turn, and La Milagrosa Canyon. There are a few more areas, but those are the ones I'm familiar with and know they are pretty good right now.

If you guys come down on a Thursday I'd be more than happy to head out with you.

Cochise. Was hoping to get out this Saturday if the
weather holds, but other w/e's are good w/some Fridays

Richard - emailed ya.

this weekend is local for me so maybe I can get a quick route in before the weather gets bad. next weekend is long for me w/ Prez. day, but it's also Valentine's day and that's a tough one for me...I would LOVE to go to Lemmon or Cochise that weekend tho. if not then, then I'm down for the weekend after that!
