Hi,

I messaged some of you guys, but here's a general call out.

21f student climbing lead 6b, follow up to 7a. Bouldering up to 6c (conversion) in Squamish, Vancouver. I have sport, trad and multi experience. No alpine experience. I'm looking to travel through the Alps, Germany, Eastern Europe, and Scandinavia, but I'm pretty flexible at the moment if you have other plans. Mine are very rough. Looking for climbing partners.

Hi guys!

I'm planning to start a collective for climbers in Chamonix in the beginning of the next season (oct/nov -15).
The plan is to rent an apartment for 3-4 persons and live there for six months or so. Take some easy work and climb as much as possible.

I'm a 20 year old guy from Sweden. Still, I'm on an amateur level, but want to really develop my climbing skills and meet some new ...

I'm backpacking from Greece to Siberia and brought the essentials (rock shoes, harness, belay device). I'll be in Greece starting this weekend and would love to do some climbing in the Meteora area. Any style, any level, any partner.

Hello,
My name is Bennett Meier I'm a 25 year old American with plenty of cold weather, Appalachian trail, Skiing, and Presidential Range experience. However I've never done any Ice climbing or had any use for crampons. I also respect the tremendous difference in difficulty that Mont Blanc presents compared to my past experiences. That being said I am in terrific shape and have all the necessary equipment for Mont Blanc including a tent. A ...

Hi,
Its been about 5 years since I was in the Julian alps when we trekked and scrambled between Kransja Gora and Bohinj. Then the huts around Triglav were adequate but with limited restaurant service.

Thanks,
Peter

Hi,

I would like to climb Grossglockner in September (in the second half more precisely). I had an experience when it comes to walking over glacier and most of equipment (ropes, harneses, axes, crampoons etc..). If there will be a good weather I plan to do it within 4 days including Saturday and Sunday - I think it is enough to perform an "attack" as Grossglockner is just about 3800 m. If you are interested ...
