I just moved back to Asheville after hiking the Pacific Crest Trail and am looking to get into Trad climbing. I currently have a sport rack but am looking to get into the bigger walls. I have gone climbing a few times since I got back from the PCT and it is sad how weak you can get after not using your arms for months so I'm looking to start easy (5.8ish or below), especially since this would be learning experience for me.

Before the trail I was climbing 5.10 and feel with a little conditioning of the upper body I could quickly be back there. Have sent 5.11a at the dump and v5 boulder problems at the bald, but that was before I became hikertrash.

A climbing partner of any discipline would be nice but I am looking to get into trad. Send me a pm if you are interested.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
