Who wants to pick The Nose?

I'm looking for a partner for The Nose for May or June, or for the Fall/Early winter.

I am happy to help train someone who is psyched but not quite ready, but that probably wouldn't work unless you can meet me other places since I live in Sacramento and can't make it all the way to the valley every weekend.

I am currently leading into 5.11 trad. I would say I'm a budding 5.11 leader, confident at 5.10. I have climbed the column south face 3x (once leading every pitch), leaning tower west face 2x (once solo), and the Prow solo. Some other climbs include Serentiy + Sons, Northeast buttress of higher, South by southwest, and lost of easier stuff. I've also made 2 attempts on the nose before. The first time I wasn't ready, and the second time my partner wasn't ready.

I don't take my safety and the safety of my partner lightly, but as long safety stuff is covered, I am all about having fun and trying to climb fast (notice I said trying, haha).

Hit me up if you're interested. 610 dash 247..8695 or berlindx *at gmail.com. Email is easier for planning but call/text is fine too.

Sent you an email.

Still looking???

I'm also looking for a partner to climb The Nose sometime in June or July. Have a little wall experience (Washington Column South Face and planing a second wall end of May), quite some freeclimbing experience up to easy 5.10s trad in Yosemite and lots of other places.
PS: Would also have Regular NW of Half Dome on my ticklist

Cheers

Might be moving to Grass Valley in September after a summer in Utah and would love to find a partner to train for some bigger wall stuff in the Valley!

If someone wants to do NIAD sometime, especially if you are from the bay and can go mid week, PM me. Have done it before in 19 hours. Would like to get it down to 15 or less hopefully. Or if someone wants to jug the whole thing and is efficient in following, I would be happy to lead the full thing.
