Europe Alps in July - Partner needed 19-May-2014 At 3:13:17 PM Mike Bee

Message

Hey all,

I've been scheming a trip to Europe for some mountain action for ages. I had a partner lined up, but he's notouriously flakely, and let me know a couple of weeks ago that he wasn't available for it after all. Not super impressed.

So, I'm an Adelaide based climber heading to Europe (leaving Australia 2nd or 3rd July), and I'm a free agent until August when my girlfriend comes over. I'm definitely keen on climbing some mountains, and if there was someone who spoke English who I could pair up with, that'd be amazing!

I climb onsight trad in the high teens, repoint on bolts into the mid 20s, have had a couple of weeks in NZ, and spent 6 weeks ice climbing in Canada. I'm pretty fit, nice and safe, and I'd be keen for anything (my inital plans were to do/try Mont Blanc, The Matterhorn and then maybe the Eiger (Mittellegi Ridge) if the weather was being friendly).

But really, as long as its beautiful and high, I'm pretty happy regardless.

If anyone is keen, let me know!
