I run a climbing club based in Dali, Yunnan, China (climbdali.com), and I am desperately looking for climbers interested in bolting to come out here and help. I have already bolted 20 routes myself; there's potential for more than a hundred, I just need help! I have plenty of bolts and a drill, and we can also offer free board (and some meals) to anyone who wants to come out and help. Contact info@climbdali.com for more information!

looks like you're pretty far from the bunch in Yangshuo. you could try contacting them to enlist their help. maybe they know some people out your way who do bolting in yangshuo

There are some crags where trad might be possible, but not the crags we are currently developing. so basically, no

Yeah I have plenty of friends/contacts in Yangshuo, but most of the regular climbers are happy there, since at the end of the day, the climbing is pretty amazing, definitely better than dali

a few guys from The North Face helped equip some of their routes as well. you might have pretty good luck in talking to them. those people are all about the exploration. it couldn't hurt to try

When is the best time of year? Would March or April weather work if my wife and I headed that way. Eman
