Its snowing in Maine, so I'm thinking of moving out to Reno, NV and was looking to find some info about climbing spots and maybe a partner. If anyone feels, kind to inform. please send me an e-mail @ scates@unity.edu

Thanks

I used to climb on the back side of the Harrah's parking garage. The residents behind enjoyed the show.

Well, you can always check the routes database, of course.

River Rock (although maybe technically in CA) is the closest crag to Reno and features a lot of sport and crack climbing (single pitch).

Donner isn't too far either and offers a bunch of hard single pitch crack climbing, but TRs can also be set up.

Big Chief is the nearest sport climbing area I know of; it's also located up higher on the Reno-side of the Sierras.

I think there is a bunch of bouldering around Tahoe in general, but I know nothing about the details.

Tuolumne is also 3 hours away.

It does snow in Reno, btw, although probably quite a bit less than in Maine, and usually not a lot of chance for snow storms in the Sierras in May (...as I remember).
