Hi,
bit of a long shot, I'm going to be kicking about on Nov27th waiting for friends to arrive that evening, I'm keen for some steep 5.12ish sport routes.. where to head & is there much chance of meeting up with potential belayers ?

Don't. Rest up. Condition for the cold. Be ready for ice climbing season in about 3 weeks somewhere coooold. There's the real winter fun.

great !.. no worries I live in Canada & they'll be plenty of that later...
I'm down in kentucky for a few days.. am used to sport climbing in the snow .. good friction.. more curious about finding the dry bits in Red River.....
any suggestions

If you climb in Canada you should be fine with our temps down here. Good luck with the dry bits. The guide book is fairly accurate with its descriptions of What wet and dry in damp weather.

The Obed is a great place to go. The red is much to extreme this time of year won't be good again till April. Extreme temperatures, Freezing seeping rock. Uhhhhhh.... Yankee go home.

anywhere south of the equator should be nice that time of year.
