I'm still pretty new to Denver. Been easing back into climbing after a hand injury, but now it's all better! Whoohoo! So, now I'm looking for trad partners that can swap leads on 10+ trad or at least can follow at that level and are cool with focusing on 5.10s and up. I've been climbing 7 years, mostly trad, super safe, have like 9 ropes. I'm not scared to to take whippers on well protected lines and want to do more multipitch in south platte, lumpy, eldo, etc. I'm planning on also climbing in the black, mt evans, and the diamond this year. I live in Lakewood but work in Golden so I also like to hit up clear creek and eldo during the week in the evening.

I'm down for leading 8s&9s in eldo and following 10s. I know not quite what you're looking for but I'll shoot you my cell regardless.

Hello Jack,

Im down for leading 10's and up on trad. Competent on basic self-rescue; looking to get AMGA SPI certified in Oct (perhaps that implies a fair amount of trad climbing competency or perhaps it doesn't). Into any trad line- full day climbs or single pitch craggin' at Turkey.

I am free to climb EVERY day starting this Wed 14 Aug up until 27 Aug, which is right before school starts back up.

Live in C Springs but am down to drive anywhere as long as there is a lot of climbing that gets accomplished.

My number is 719-337-5485.

I've climbed with jack a bunch in CA and Squamish. He's super nice and super competent. He will be quiet at first but will start blasting metal operas when he gets comfortable around you.

I was just going to make a partner post about climbing trad in Boulder Canyon. I still consider myself to be new at placing gear on the sharp end but have the gear to place and want to get more experience in that area. Probably only comfortable leading up to the 5.10 range, but I'll follow up to 5.12 on a good day. I'm down to climb any time! Keep me in the loop at mr.enviro@gmail.com

@Mr.Clean - Hey man! Have you been able to lure anymore CO partners up to WY lol? I might be down for a trip to the Devils Tower again if the weather is good. El Matador is calling my name!

I'm always looking for partners to get out mid week. I'm coming back from a 5 year hiatus of working too much but I'm leading trad in the 10s right now. I've been climbing over ten years and had some AMGA training feel free to hit me up with a PM.

I am looking for trad partners myself. Comfortable leading 5.9 and some 5.10. I am really interested in finding a partner to climb Casual Route on the Diamond in the next few weeks. Send me a message if interested in the Diamond or just getting out. In addition to weekends, I can climb some Fridays and other weekdays depending on the climb.

Thanks for the replies! I'm gonna work on climbing with everyone, starting with the most experienced ones that live closest to me. I climb every weekend so you may hear from me throughout the summer as I always! want to climb!

Hello everybody,

The forecast for Saturday could not be better for a trip up the diamond. 0% chance of rain in Estes. Several people on this post have expressed an interest in heading up there, so I thought I'd ask if anyone was down for Saturday. I did the casual route last summer and would be interested in repeating it or trying pervertical or the yellow wall. I lead 5.10, and lead every pitch on the casual route besides p1.

My number is 270 226 3886 if you are interested.
I live in Denver.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
