Hello climbers ,
Ive got some time up my sleeve and seeking partners to climb with up the blue mts this coming week possibly a day or two during the week , so if youre keen and available , drop me a line . Im based in Sydney and can travel up there and stay up there.
I can lead up to 20-21 and prefer a partner that can lead similar or higher grades, also Im a super safe and patient belayer.
Look forward to it ! :)

You should take up bouldering or soloing or some thing.

So then you can climb all the time and partners become optional. Also so some stalker from Sydney doesn't pretend to be a climber and hurt you in the blue mountains. If you really want to climb all the time come over to Yosemite in June and climb some big walls with me for 3 months. :)

With a moniker of "groundfall" you really inspire confidence to go to Yosemite with you, plus she wrote trad, which aint aid.

Hey Gavin.
Thanks for replying to my post.
what grades can you lead up to?
How long have you been climbing ? and do you have rope and gear.
Cheers Jules

Why wtf?
I assume you are not a Honnold or a Huber?
Of course there is abundant free climbing there, but you wrote, big walls, which is what they are more famous for, and that is not the same as big slabs, lower aprons, or also the more commonly free climbed edge routes of the real walls there.

Js writes some funny posts. I can't imagine asking anyone keen on Yos if they have rope and gear as there wouldn't be much point in climbing big walls there for three months without it.
Haven't noticed climbers queueing up to climb with her based on forum posts so maybe she needs to get some lessons from simey?

Good luck with your trip. The fact you are making it happen means you are likely to succeed at getting up your chosen routes.

There is enough sport routes and bouldering in Yosemite to keep you busy for three months without bothering with trad... ;-)

Hi Jules

I am a safe experienced climber who has done lots trad, less sports as most of my climbing was at araps, have rope and gear, wires, cams, chalk etc.

Rather than make this a dissertation on my life I will send you a pm to your e-mail.

Regards

Gavin
