Tonsai partners Aug 17-22
|
Squeezing in a few days in Tonsai in August, and looking for people to climb with. Specifically hoping to get on Lord of the Thais, and maybe Orange Chandeliers. Trying to arrange some DWS charters to go to some spots other than Poda Island, so if anyone is interested in jumping in on that, let me know. |

A buddy and I will be in the area around that time. The stuff you are looking to do is a bit beyond our skill level. We are in the 5.10- early 5.11 range. If you are still interested in meeting up shoot me a message. |

Hey, I'll probrably be climbing in Thailand in August, I was planning on starting in Tonsai, but it would be cool to move that back if you needed a partner. Were you planning on climbing anywhere else in Thailand? |
|
I'm in Tonsai now climbing with my girlfriend. We're climbing mainly on Tonsai Tower but want to hit up the drinking wall and some more varied scenery. Anybody know any local climbers? All the climbing shops here have no guides, as its the low season. Climbing in the 5.10b/c/d range, but could climb harder with a partner. Best free soloing places? The weather is pretty bad so no one wants to take us. |
|
Thanks, guys. Glad there will be some people around to climb with. I'll send you guys my email and we can be in touch. |
|
Would still love to find someone to hop on Lord Of The Thais with. I should be able to lead all pitches, if someone wants to lead a few, or follow the whole way. |

Hey, everyone. |

In general, most people just show up and find a place when they get to Tonsai. Its seems kinda weird if you are used to having everything pre-planned, but that seems to be the way it works on Tonsai. Hop off the long tail that brings you into Tonsai, walk to the nearest bar, or Tonsai Roof, and just start talking to people. Ask them where they stay, how much it costs, etc. There are a couple of bungalow places right off the beach where the boats land, so you can also just walk straight to those places and see whats available. |

Joe I've sent you a message. Anyone in Ton Sai now - is the weather still poor? |
|
Anyone going to be there August 29th through September 6th? I'll be looking for climbing partners. I climb in the 5.10 to early 5.11 range |

Good luck!Thanks! My friends finally got back to me and confirmed this as well. Should be a sweaty good time! Chris Farrah wrote:Anyone going to be there August 29th through September 6th?

I'm in Ao Nang. Very close to Ton Sai. The weather is hard to predict now. There are stretches of a few days where it will be sunny and nice but then there can be a week of off and on rain. The last few days have been rainy and it's been hard to get a lot of climbing in. |
