Merry Chrismas one and all.
I’m looking for a potential partner – for grade 3′s and 4′s –
looking for short trip to Rockies where ice is guaranteed.
Two close in potential periods;
week of January 2 through 6th or,
week of January 14 thru 20th – just looking for 4 or 5 days.
if we hit it off, could lead to more.
Have gear, ropes, etc.
p.s. – not looking to die in avi conditions or set fire to grade 6 test pieces so you must be content with just getting out – and getting warmed up – finding the rythmn again. I’m safe as proved out by my age

No, I’ve been too busy so far. It might have been too much to take on.
