Hey,
I down here in Southern Alabama, and am having a hard time finding places to improve my climbing skills. Right now I have one small climbing gym and have a basic knowledge of climbing. Anyone know a good place to go from here? I heard that Tennessee was a good climbing state..

Ask some of the people at your gym if they know of any places in the area to climb and see if you can hook up with someone more experienced. Maybe some nice person will let you tag along

Read all you can, check out some instructional books, videos, etc, and climb anything you can, as often as you can. You WILL improve.
