Hey Rich, I'm pretty busy this December but if I have a free day I wouldn't mind getting out.

trad climbing at mt diablo? ouch. you'd be better off learning on the crack between your fridge and kitchen cabinet. that rock is not so bueno and not a lot in the way of cracks anyhow. just go to consumnes or tahoe, much better places to learn trad. best of luck, and don't forget to take your time and learn well. the skills you need don't come quickly or easily.
