Hey everyone. I went on a roadtrip to alaska this summer and i got into climbing along the way. I have only been climbing for a couple months and almost all of it has been outdoors. I am going to stoneworks tonight to boulder. Is anyone from this site gonna be there? Since there isn't much outdoor stuff around dallas, then most of my climbing will be indoors :(. I would like to do climbing other than bouldering so if anyone is interested let me know. I have a pretty flexible schedule until school starts and i would like to go to mineral wells or austin b4 the fall semester starts, but i will need a partner.

Plano is a long way from Exposure. And you plan on climbing there three times a week?

I see you changed your profile location from Plano to Dallas. A little closer to Exposure.

In reply to: You got into climbing in Alaska this summer? Haha, how did THAT happen? This summer has sucked, weather-wise! :lol: I'm interested in the more detailed story! :wink:
We were on our way to alaska when i saw some people climbing in Moab, UT. I talked to them a bit and it looked like alot of fun. We stopped in Grand Junction, Colorado to see sme family, and i went to an indoor gym. I was hooked from that day on. I went to REI the next day and blew all my money on gear. I climbed everywhere i could from then on. On the way up we stopped in utah, wyoming, montana, idaho, washington, and British Columbia. We didn't climb very much at all in alaska. There was a surprisingly small amount of climbing there.

Haha yeah I didn't really see how someone would get into climbing because they came here. Moab is much more likely for that. :lol: There's climbing here alright, but it's largely undeveloped and remote, so you don't bump into it unless you mean to climb it. Awesome way to start though! Welcome to the sport. :D
