I'm a budding trad leader and would covet some mentoring for several days in the next two weeks. Looking to lead 10 or so 5.6-5.7 trad lines and have someone older and wiser take a look at my placements.

I don't have a trad rack (yet) and I'm available on weekdays.

I'd also love to build some anchors and have an older-wiser look over them.

In exchange, I'd be happy to supply your favorite beverage and belays.

Thanks!

Hey Tyler,

Not sure I fulfill the "older" requirement but just sent you a PM regarding getting out on Tuesday. Hit me up if interested!

If no one else works out, I'm in as well.

Tyler,

I've been getting some good mentoring over the last 3 years focusing on overall safety, good gear placements and solid anchors, etc... I have a full (double) trad rack that needs to get some scratches on it! I'd love to dump on you what I know and then learn with you as well. I live in Boulder and can climb/meet in Golden, too. I'm in the 5.6-5.8 range for Trad Leading at the moment depending on the crag. I have a few go-to spots that we can start with at least...
Let me know and happy climbing!

-hardy

PS Eric Klammer is a strong and safe climber, he took me out one time. I would take advantage of his offer. Hey Eric!

And if none of them are available; hit me up.

Or, conversely, if any of you want to get out with me (climbed trad for quite a while, but never really progressed beyond climbing moderates) on some 5.fun let me know. I am ALWAYS looking for people who just want to get out and climb a 5.fun.

Thanks for the replies, folks. I'll be in touch with you.

I'd be down to climb in the poudre early tomorrow morning. I work at noon but I feel like we could crush for a few hours before.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
