he guys, just stopping by to introduce myself. Name is Steve, 29, male
Been climbing for two years, started out doing top rope and following on trad. Just starting to lead a little bit of trad stuff. My best climb so far has been a 5.12, probably only comfortable leading a 5.9 at absolute max.
Stuck in GA, some ok climbing here but try to make it to NM and CO twice a year to climb some better stuff.
