I recently moved to Calgary and haven't managed to meet climbers yet. I haven't climbed outdoors for a year or so, so probably right now could climb 5.10a/b and lead a 5.9 (sport). I used to boulder indoors alot so would love to give it a go outdoors as well. I have a random work schedule but mostly evenings or weekends are best. Hopefully get to meet some of you!

Hey, you rocky rockers around Calgary, I'm heading for the Rockies this week:
Thursday, 9 Aug 2007
Friday, 10 Aug 2007
Saturday, 11 Aug 2007
Sunday, 12 Aug 2007
You can join me, or I can join you.
With you or without you, I'll be somewhere on the rocks those days...
Hike up Heart Creek (a nice, easy, idylic hike)
Trad on any route on Kid Goat.
Explore McGillivary Slabs.
Top-rope on Cowbell Crag (maybe)
Scramble on Porcupine Ridge.
PM or e-mail, I'm flexible with schedule within that timeframe.
(Edited to add this P.S.)
P.S. My avatar picture shows me on top of McConnell Ridge. From where I'm standing, I can turn around and see all those places except Cowbell.

Hello, I am a NOLS wilderness instructor, travelling around Canada (Alberta and BC) looking to do some alpine climbing, either non-technical or easy 5.6-5.7 range, also trad cragging up to 5.10 hard (will do sport, but prefer trad). Seeking to meet cool people who have at least some experience but more important a good attitude and sense of humor. I am free from this Sunday for about 2-3 wks. I got a phone but don't know if I get reception

When are you at the Crux? I climb there at least once a week, but not at a 5.10d level. I've only been climbing for a couple of months, and at around a 5.10a level.
I'm looking for people to climb with; I'd like to try outside. I have a 4x4 and don't mind hauling gear if anyone wants to teach me :)

I moved to Rockies to climb as much as I can but have difficult time to find partners for especially for aipine rock climbing.
I am working as a hiking guide and about 7 years of alpine/sport climbing experience.
I have some trad climbing experience in Japan, Yosemite and Indiancreek. For trad climbing Red point: 11b On-sight: 10c. For sport climbing Red-point:12a/b Onsight 11b
I also have alpine-climbing experience in Japan and Chamonix, France plus a few in Canadian Rockies.
I have a long day off from 27th Aug
wanna go to squamish, too.
Jiro

Hey folks,
coming up to canmore on sat. eve and hopefully will be staying at the clubhouse for a few nights. Looking to hang out and climb some. I like easy to moderate multipitch - up to 5.8., craggin' it is good, as long as I use my gear at least once during this trip.
haven't climbed much in the area so all you gotta do is point and I'll climb.
drop a note here or email rotras1@hotmail.com

Uasunflower, I know you sent me a PM and I should have some time in September to climb. We can keep in touch... I should know for sure by next week what my fianl work schedule will be like.
And to anyone else who wants to climb, I'm living in Banff for the next 8 weeks and would be very interested in mainly afternoon or evening partners for climbing around the Banff/Canmore area. On weekends I have partners who come out from Calgary so I'm usually busy but you could probably join us depending on what we're doing.
I've been climbing for about 3 years, and can lead mid-10s sport. I can lead 5.8 on trad at Squamish but when it comes to the Rockies, I'm more conservative.
I have my own car and gear. Please PM me if interested.

I am not available for alpine during the week due to work, but I am always looking for people to get out cragging with after work. I am off at 3pm. Keep me in mind if you have a down day and feel like getting out.
If you are looking for people to get out on some alpine this weekend then pm me and we can discuss.
