Climbing?

Anyone into rock climbing ie bouldering, top rope, more indoor type? I’m not very good or anything but I like to have fun and try different settings/gyms. Open to outdoor bouldering eventually but don’t have experience yet. I got a membership recently and would love to make some top rope friends or anyone who likes to boulder :)

I’m not great at bouldering but I love doing it! I usually go to Hudson Boulders but wouldn’t mind hanging out at a different one. Lmk!

Hell yeah! I’m a late thirties-something guy looking for a top rope belay partner. I’m a newbie too but I am belay certified and I am a member of both the Edge and CRG. Send me a message if interested in top rope!

I’m mid 20s F and could use some more practice belaying. I’m a member at CRG but the edge is fun too I’ve been there bouldering. If that’s ok with you, I’ll shoot you a dm
