Hi Juan,

My wife and I just moved to Austin 2 weeks ago... I'm about to head over to REI this afternoon to buy a copy of the Austin Climbing Guidebook and then I'm going to walk through Barton Creek park just to get familiar and to see how many people are around.

If you don't find anyone else to climb with, send me a message and you can be new with us. I've got a good rope and a dozen or so quickdraws. I used to be about a 12b leading on plastic, but haven't climbed regularly in about 3 years (living at the beach in florida). I made the switch to gymnastics instead, so I'm still in fairly good shape except for the crimpy fingertip stuff.

The more the merrier, I'd like to find someone local as well that knows the area so I don't get out there and paddle in on someone else's wave.

If you Austin folks see a big blonde guy who looks lost, that's me... I'd love to say hello and get any pointers you have.
