Hey all,
My name is Matt Peters and I am looking to find someone to climb with in/around Atlanta both inside and outside. I'm currently a freshman at Georgia Tech and I have a car and would be willing to drive if necessary (especially when going outdoors). I'm from up North (Massachusetts) and have been climbing for about 6 years and can climb solid 5.12 (looking to break into 5.13), although I haven't climbed in a while and will need to do some training to get back to that level. I'd be especially interested in climbing at Atlanta Rocks or Adrenaline Climbing inside -- but it really doesn't matter; as for outdoors, the only places I've been in the SE are the Red and Little River Canyon, but I'd love to go anywhere. Feel free to respond to this post, PM me, or email me at peters@gatech.edu. Thanks!
Matt Peters

Well, I don't go to Auburn but I do go to Troy. I hear there's some decent climbing around Auburn.
What do you think about the areas around you? What's good, whats to be avoided? How good is the roped climbing?
I usually just suck it up and make the drive up to HP40, but something a little closer would be cool too.

I don't know if you're into bouldering, but Boat Rock is a cool little boulder field. It is probably within 25 minutes of Tech unless you hit traffic. I'll be down there this weekend sometime if you wanna hook up. Later.

well there is cherokee rock bluffs which is near lake martin which is good. I climb there alot. if your looking for sport climbing this would be the place to go. There is a boulder a little ways off campus but it isn't worth the drive. Cherokee has about 15 routes and there is a good camping area right next to the river. It'd be worth checkin out if you have the time. If you ever head out there and need a guide just holler at me.
