I'm looking for some weekend & evening partners that want to climb bunches of easier trad routes at about 5.6/5.7. I'd like to start pushing into some 8's and maybe even easy 9's after some more consistent outdoor climbing.

All other types of climbing are good too.

Been climbing about a decade and trad'ing about five years.

Hey Brad,

I would be interested. I am only leading easy trad right now. I was doing 10's last year before shattering my foot and am still rehabbing and trying to get strongs, but only leading around 5.6 right now. I am super safe and know Eldo backwards and forwards. Love Lumpy and RMNP too. Off on Friday/Saturdays and can do some evenings.

Hey Brad.. I'm in CO (Dillon) from NC for the summer and looking for climbing partners. I attempting to do all the 14ers but looking to climb on off days. Pretty new to leading trad, but have seconded and lead sport for quite a while. PM me if interested. I'm pretty flexible on days since I have the summer off.

Hey Brad, if you're looking for a partner any weekend, let me know. My climbing partners have been dwindeling as of late, and I'd be happy to get out with you. I've been climbing for 5 years and am leading up to 5.7+ trad (5.10+ sport) and have been looking for a steady, safe, partner at the same level as me as well. I have a full trad rack but will climb sport as well, if you want.

Tom & Brad, I'm also up for going out on Sunday, I'm just waiting to hear back from a friend tonight. Not sure how either of you feel about a party of three though. Just to throw this out there, is there anyone else interested in going out and making it a party of 4? Meeting 3 potential climbing partners sounds better than meeting 1 to me.

Michael, what are your plans? Do you need a partner or is this just a big group going up?

scott,
last count looks like 4 maybe 5, wife, friends, couple of coworkers. if you want to tag along, always looking to meet new climbing folk. love to find more trad clibers to hang out with, not my wife's cup of tea and all. if you want to tag along shoot me an email: michael.foy@colorado.edu, we can work out a plan.

Let me recap, it sounds like:

Saturday - sport climbing at Lily Lake - 4 to 5 climbers so far.

Sunday - easy trad (Eldo?) - 3 to 4 climbers so far.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

Btw - i'm okay with three climbers. I have twin/double ropes and need to practice that method.

I'm good with Eldo on Sunday. Just let me know a place and time and I'll be there!
