Introduction

I love to climb and meet new people. After meeting some people that were part of a "Meetup" group at TRC I just figured this would be a great way to meet other climbers in the area.

What's your experience? Climbing Rating. Indoor, top rope, sport, trad, lead experience?

Indoor 5.9+, Outdoor 5.9+, Top Rope I will try anything, but 5.10, Sport 5.9+, Trad zero experience, Led 5 climbs (2 5.7s, 2 5.8s, and a 5.9). I have climbed outside in Tennessee, West Virginia, and North Carolina.

What are your aspirations? ie. hope to lead, climb big wall, do El Capitan, etc

Climb a whole slew of things down here in the South and all over the US

(REQUIRED) Are you over 18 years old? (Yes/No)

Yes

How did you hear about us? Web search, Friend, through Meetup.com, etc.?

Meetup group that was climbing at Triangle Rock Club which is also my gym.

What Robert Ketcham is saying about this Meetup Group

Anyone who has ever wanted to go to the gym/ a gym and climb, but gets there only to find that they are the third or fifth wheel should join this group. In a nutshell it sets you up to meet people who want to climb without the awkwardness of having to go up to strangers in the gym/ crag and ask to join in. I find this comes in very helpful for meeting women who are into climbing. When I approach them in the gym I sometimes worry that they think I am interested in them for reasons other than a climbing partner. The meetup solves that problem by letting me know who to look for in the gym; so that I am not walking up to strangers and imposing on them, or making them feel like my interests lie in anything other than climbing.
