I am looking to climb at the gorge this coming weekend. I used to climb in a gym 4-5 days a week in college but it's been a few years since then. I'm still in great shape but don't think I could still climb my old 10.11-12 routes. I don't have experience climbing outdoors but want to get into it pretty seriously. I'll be able to hold my own and won't slow you down.

I'm easy to get along with. I may end up camping for the whole weekend--I'm coming from Cincinnati.

No outdoor experience... How are you at leading outside? How about cleaning? Do you have your own gear? What grade would you be climbing at? How much lead belaying have you done? How much do you weigh? Can you give a soft catch? Have you ever dropped anyone? Can anyone vouch for your belaying skills?

Answering some of theses things might help you find a partner...

What's your email address?

Let me know if you're still interested in finding a weekend partner. I am not as strong of a climber but I have outdoor experience. Have my own equip. & can lead belay / clean. Only lead climbing 5.6 and 5.7. Maybe a 5.8 if I'm feeling brave. Top rope in the 5.10's. 5.11's are beyond me.

but seriously... how much do you weigh? Are you female? and all that other stuff?

Lol, I concede weight was over the top... But that aside, why don't you take him out next week end, I am sure he won't slow you down.
