American seeking climbing buddies on East coast 25-Nov-2009 At 8:00:21 AM conanpb5k

Hey there.

I'm an American coming to Australia from Sat Nov 28 to Tues Dec 22, on tour and hoping to do some climbing! I reckon I'll be in Sydney to start, then head up north, swing back down to Melbourne probably around Dec 9 - 16 or so (plans are still pretty flexi for the moment, as I'm just going to be on tour) and would def. like to do some climbing if I can.

I climb at around 5.10d in the States - a conversion chart tells me that's a 21 by Aus grading I think. I won't be traveling with gear, unfortunately - got a month of backpacking after all - but if I can find someone to climb with I won't mind picking up a harness and shoes or something. It'll be in the back half of my trip by then, after all - I can always bring that stuff home with me.

Drop me a line, I'd love to get up the rock down there in Victoria - or in NSW, or in QLD!

First time in Oz - best time in Oz!

Thanks,
Eric
