I'm building my bouldering wall and need about 300 t-nuts.
Does anyone know of a cheap supply of them in Colorado Springs or on the web?
Thanks
Simon

You might try fastenall on N.Stone or even
Ace hardware might have 'em. Get some anti-sieze
too if you want to get them apart again. My friend
had a lot of trouble with them.
If you have good access to the back of the wall
you may want to consider just using flat washers
and nuts.

I got some from this company when I lived in Albuquerque http://www.castersabq.com/
Not sure if they'll ship them, but definately cheap part from them. You may wanna try to find a place like this local to you.

The Nose, check. I have a photo-TR up on Facebook, if you have it. Now I've discovered that I suck on granite, I'm determined to work on it. Look for trips to Lumpy and SP this summer!

Hi Steve, looks like a great site. Really good prices. Thanks for th e pointer.
How are you doing finding time to climb? If you're up for a few hours in the Garden on Saturday I'm trying to rally a couple of people to go. I've got 2 maybe's so far.
There's a nice 5.8 with a long 5.10a variation next to a trad crack and a short traverse to the anchors of another fun looking climb all close to the 5.7 trad crack on Gray Rock. If you're up for it give me a call.
(The offer is open to all.)

Hi all, I have Monday and Tuesday off this week (June 2, 3) and would like to climb one of the two days. I'm interested in sport (mid-range .10) or easy bouldering (V1-3). I live in Colorado Springs, but I'm willing to drive. Other cool ladies preferred.
Please reply to:

I just moved into the Woodland Park area and will be here for the summer. I'm looking for climbing partners on Wednesdays and Thursdays. Mainly interesed in local trad climbing-- Turkey Rocks, 11-Mile, elsewhere in S. Platte, etc; sport climbing at Shelf is fine as well. Also looking to possibly meet up with people for the occaisonal after-work bouldering session on other days of the week at Woodland boulders, Ute Pass, etc.
PM me or email me at jmoen@middlebury.edu if interested
Thanks,
Jon Moen

Hi All - I just moved to Boulder, and I'm looking for climbing partners. I want to climb 4-5 days a week. I prefer to climb outside (Eldo, Boulder Canyon, Monastery, etc...) and I prefer to trad climb or sport climb. Willing to climb 5.12 and under (sport) or 5.11 and under (trad) and I'll belay on anything harder. I'd like to work some 5.12+ or 5.13- routes through the summer. Shoot me a PM if you're interested or email me at tam37@pitt.edu
Thanks.
Todd

Ewok,
Most of us are working stiffs. You may want to post on Mountainproject if you haven't already.

So what did you think about Red Slab? Pretty heinous, huh?

Just like Shaggy said "it wasn't me"
if anyone wants to join me... I'll be bouldering at flagstaff tomorrow (the 12th) after work. Then I'll be going to the show at neptunes at 8:00.

I live in Fort Collins and am looking for a partner to climb at Eldo or Lumpy Ridge this weekend (June 14 or 15th). Prefer trad 5.8-5.10. Too much indoor bouldering has been driving me nuts. I need to plug some gear. I've got a lot of weekends off in July and August and am hoping to get a lot of climbing in this summer as well.
Send me an e-mail if interested: neaglemark@hotmail.com

A few of us are planning to go down to Turkey Rocks for the weekend. Hopefully the weather is not going to be too warm. Come join the party!

Hey all. My partner is hanging out with her niece this weekend. Anyone interested in something relatively easy (7-9, trad pref) for a few pitches? I'm in SW Littleton, but it's too hot to stay down low. I'm just not in a Turkey mood.
Vedauwoo for the 4th? Hike into McCurdy? Now that sounds like a good idea...
Reply or email me directly. Have fun out there.
Namaste,
tradkelly

Okay, it's settled. McCurdy for the 4th. Post or PM if interested. Plan is 1 or 2 nights in the meadow, hike back out mid-day Saturday.
There's a Vedauwoo trip coming up roughly 24-27 July if you're interested as well, car camping.
