Any Rock Climbers?

So summer is just around the bend.... wondering if anyone in the seattle/ south sound area are into any local rock climbing? Possibly planning some fun sport climbing day trips/ RX7 cruises.... any interest??

I was up to 5.10 lead until I quite two years ago. I would like to get back into it, but don't have anyone to do it with around here. I got a full rack and 9mm rope if you guys want to do anything big, but in the 5.8-5.7 range.

Sweet! im glad to see there is some interest! although WA doesnt offer as much as CA in the way of climbing ( and driving ) ( i complain too much) there are some great local areas and even better areas that are 1-2 hour drive from the south sound..... Last summer, me and Fumihiko... with the black s5 tore up the local areas pretty well...
Tentatively, we have a drive out to the Vantage climbing areas in central WA... ( same exit off 1-90 as the Gorge Ampitheatre) That will be May 12th......... Prolly spend a full day out there... its about a 1.5 hour drive, If you do like i did last saturday and get a speeding ticky.... ug!

Another fun place, is Fossil Rock, down by Yelm..... we will def. be out there plenty of times this summer

OK, well lets say may 19th or 26th.... depending on the weather, and i know the Helens Run is on the 20th, so perhaps the 26th would be best....

For sure.... tentatively May 12th Vantage

May 26th Fossil rock ( depending on Shane)

Don't worry about having little experience, its fun no matter what, and we've got some decently seasoned climbers also.....
