Well, that's cool!! I added you to my msn, I'm usually around..My schedule is fairly flexible, I would like to climb with a girl, there seems to be a shortage of those around!! Do you hike also?

Lisa, I added you to my msn, (if thats a prob, just let me know, and delete me), but me and my climbing partners usually get out tues, thurs and sunday, afternoon, or evenings...we are going this sunday, if your interested, for around 3:00 or 3:30 pm...paul will be there a bit early, but i'll be there at the above times. During the week we usually climb at 4 or 6pm....always at VR. There are a couple of chicks we climb wiht, and a couple guys too. We are all top roping mostly, and all slowly getting into leading, so if your interested, drop us a line
later

Nope, not for climbing. For FOOTBALL!! We're staying at a friend's place in St-Catharines on Saturday night and Sunday we're heading to Buffalo for the football game.
I might meet a Buffalo ice climber (from the NEICE website) at the EMS (she works there) in Tonawanda.

Hmmm, I gotta start trolling NEIce to see if I can meet more people in this area.

Hey Rob,
I couldn't make Coyote on Wednesday night, but, I would be interested in going ice climbing sometime. I've only done it twice though. I'm in the process of shopping around for axes and crampons, but will rent until then.
I would appreciate any input you could give me on what kind of boots to get.
Many thanks,
Neil

Hi lisa, the minimum gear would be stiff crampon compatible boots that fit you well. I have double or triples of everything else and can provide loaners unless you have freakishly small feet.

Hi Neil,
Would love to help out in choosing gear. pm me if ever you'd have time to talk.
ps: I don't appreciate getting slandered by strangers.
