I am based out of las vegas until April 3Oth and get fridays saturdays and sundays off between work hitches throughout southern nevada. It's not relevant, but i do wilderness conservation labor.

I have been living out of my truck and climbing outdoors regularly for the past two years-mostly at smith rock, OR, around reno/tahoe, cochise stronghold, and the the tiniest introduction to the yosemite valley. Anyway, I really want to explore more of red rocks. i don't have any regualar partners and usually just hang around the pulloffs until i can hook up with a group. this has kept me restricted to single pitch sport. fun, but not what i'd like to get into here.

I'm interested in the mixed multi-pitch classics throughout the canyon. 5.6-5.8 for now. I've got a full rack, OO-4" with doubles and triples of cams I've used more often. I have a new Mammut tusk 7Om rope and an older, thicker work horse rope. willing to use it all and partner up for some good days on rock!

i can lead sport up to 5.1Ob and trad up to 5.8+ comfortably.
i have done a few 4 and 5 pitch climbs before and really enjoy that kind of climbing. I'm safe and serious, but friendly.

PM me if you'd like to make a plan together.

Ben,

I'll be in Vegas this weekend for a conference and can climb on Sunday (2/21) if you're interested. I have plenty of RR trad experience including leading most of the classics. Give me a ring/txt if you're interested.

Hi Ben-

I'm in town for most of April, I could climb on Fridays. I've been doing trad for 2 years and I'm also looking to climb the awesome 5.7's and 5.8's- let me know if you're still looking. ~Linda
