I plan to start outdoor climbing again soon when the weather warms up. I will be climbing all around Vermont, New Hampshire, and the greater Boston area. Would anyone else in here be interested in meeting up?
I have a dynamic rope, static rope, crash pad, and 14 quickdraws, so we would be all set for toproping, bouldering, and sport climbing. _________________

I want to go rock climbing with you, but I'm not willing to travel halfway across the country for that. Plus I've only done it in gyms, never outside. Or, as internet people call it, IRL. _________________

Matt, are you like a hardcore rock climber or are you just a casual adventure seeker? _________________

That's not true, I go almost every weekend with him.
I'll definitely go, as long as I have the time. |

Dang, I would, except I live in California. Going up to Oregon next week for a full-week climbing/spelunking trip with a few friends, actually. Does your area have really good rock climbing? _________________

sounds like a hell of a lot of fun. I've always wanted to try the real thing. I've only climbed on those plastic and wooden built walls. If only I wasn't a thousand miles away...  _________________

Well, were it not for the fact that it'd be weird for me to ask my parents to go rock climbing of all things during my vacation with someone I've never seen in real life and know nothing about, I would probably go.
I mean, I'm only a few hours at most away from Randolph (I live near W. Rutland, not sure exactly where Randolph is from here.) _________________

W Rutland is about an hour from me.
If you are interested in learning to climb, I would suggest the climbing gym in Rutland (which I frequent).

OK, does anyone *not* live across the country and still want to? _________________

My brother's in NH right now looking at colleges and he's the biggest rock climber fanatic I know. I'll give call and ask him if he'd be interested.
PS: He'd probably ask me to ask you how you apply your chalk, by grabbing the bag that holds the chalk or just sticking you hand straight into it? _________________

I'd love to come with ya, cuz I've done this a lot before. Of course, I'm in England, so as you can see, you're getting more unlucky as this goes on XD _________________
