To add onto this question, when are you able to actually function as a climber and not as a completely n00b?
Basically, I know I'm not ready to ask to climb with other people as I can barely do 5.8 at the gym and I've never led (the routes at the gym are all 5.9 or above for lead). At what level is it not awkward to attempt to join others on climbing outings? Is there typically a grade you climb or skills you have?
(Basically, I don't have any experienced climber friends - my boyfriend and I are learning together but at some point we'd like to make the leap outside but aren't quite certain what skill level we should be at before attempting to find other climbing partners)
