So on another thread there was discussion on how to estimate the percentage of climbers who climb 5.12 and above and with all ya alls help here its how I would like to crack that nut. Please list the number of climbers you know and then the number of them that climb greater than 5.12. Clarifications: "Known" is not in the conjugal sense, nor is it the virtual sense. If you find your count going too high, limit yourself by time. Include yourself in the count, but you need not say what you climb. "Climber" is defined by someone who owns a climbing rope. Spouses, crew members, and posse count. "5.12" is lead outdoors. You need not have witnessed the climb, this is your estimation of their ability.

I thought these calculations have been done (by better means than yours). If I recall correctly, either climbing or Rock and Ice did a poll like that a couple of year ago, and found that only ~25% of respondents (people who subscribed to the magazine and responded) climbed above 5.10. By extrapolating from that, I will say that the percentage of people who climb >5.12 is ~5%. But if I look at people I personally know... let's see. If I take 107 climbers who are on my facebook friends list, 56 of them climb at least 5.12. My verdict is, your poll would be hopelessly skewed, too, because people tend to associate with other of similar ability. 5.12+ climbers are more likely to personally know more than a 'fair' share of other 5.12+ climbers, so it wouldn't be representative...

Now this is an arbitrary point and one could easily say that unless you climb 5.10 (or other number) you aren't a climber.

Absolutely, better climbers will associate with better climbers, but by removing the "spray" aspect I was hoping that more people would participate. I still expect that the count will be high, in part due to the self selecting nature of the site, let alone people who would degrade themselves to reply to this thread.

Out of all of the climbers I know, let's say that's 60 or so people, there have been exactly 4 that have ever led 5.12 sport. And out of those 4 only 2 of then ever led 5.12 trad.

I agree with Lena. About half the climbers I know climb 5.12. However, I do see way more people at the crag who I don't know that don't.

Can you clarify your definition of climbing 5.12. Consistently on-sight Red-point Trad and sport I know and meets lots of climbers who red point 5.12 here and there, but I don't meet as many who are what I consider 5.12 climbers.

50% of 16 climbers that I know pretty well. Some can on sight 5.12 often, some occasionally, some red point most commonly after working the route (like me +/- (25) 12a through 12c routes in 13 years.)

Of course, in Asia I notice that Europeans climb 5.12 more consistent than American climbers. In America, 5.12 seems to be some-type of mental barrier, but in Europe, the barrier seems to be 5.13. Just an observation.

You know one when you meet one, but it is like pornography, hard to define. You specifically focused on roped climbing, so my count of "people who climb 5.12" excluded some really strong guys who are, definitely, climbers, and are definitely capable of climbing 5.12 and well beyond, but prefer to boulder and do so in V7-V8+ range. On the other hand, the count it included people who have ropes, but only go out twice a year...

You can already see yet another bias, just from couple replies. People who climb 5.12+ are also likely to be climbing for longer time, and/or be more active in terms of going out and climbing more frequently, so they are more likely to know more climbers overall. And combined with "they are more likely to know stronger climbers" bias it will skew things even more.

By 5.12, you must mean sport climbers. By that measure there are tons. By 5.12 trad all around bad ass clmbers, there aren't that many.

The same is true for sub-5.12. Birds of a feather, Lena!

The same is true for sub-5.12. Birds of a feather, Lena! You missed the other part of what I said. People climbing harder grades generally have been climbing longer and/or are going climbing more frequently, and/or are more likely to have climbed at multiple different areas over the period of their climbing time. Therefore, they also generally know more climbers overall than people who climb lower grades.

You're formula sounds sexier but it s no better in determining how many people can climb 5.12. Off the top of my head I'd say that nearly 50% of the climbers that I know (outside of those that I've guided for work) have red-pointed 5.12. At least half of them (so 20 to 25% overall) do it very consistently. I doubt that is a true representation of the rock climbing public.

Each person will not be a true representation of the rock climbing public. That its to be expected. What is hoped its that the replies represent the rock climbing public and then the aggregate of the replies is representative.

One other thing that makes this approach so difficult is overlap. The climbing community is very small. I would be willing to bet that of all the 5.12 climbers that I and Lena know, we have at least 20 in common. I think that the best way to determine this would be to take a random sample of people who have bought a standard piece of equipment in the last year (most likely a rope), and ask what their highest redpoint was.

i don't know any climbers, but they all climb 5.12+ [so take 5.12 and divide by zero and youll get the amount of awesomness of your estimation skillage]

For a large part of 2008, 09 and 10 I was either living and working at a climbing destination or living in my truck, road tripping. Off the top of my head I could think of 39 out of 90 people who have red-pointed 5.12. I planned to stop at 50 but I kept thinking of more people and the ratio stayed about the same. I have either climbed with these people, or at least watched them climb. So that's 39/90 - 43% that have climbed 5.12. Most of them will red-point a new 5.12 in 10 tries or less. FWIW, a majority of the 90 people climb both sport and trad. A large majority of the 39 who climb 5.12 climb both sport and trad and a majority of the 51 who do not climb 5.12 climb only sport. Of the 10 people that I would call my climbing partners, 4 have red-pointed 5.12 and two have on-sighted 5.12. Since I've moved to London (7 weeks ago), I've only climbed indoors. I've climbed with roughly 10 people and 3 or them climb 5.12. Ad that to the 90 people and you have 42/100. R&I had a pretty good breakdown in their health issue a few months back. I think I quoted it on here. EDITED to add that camhead is correct in saying that there is overlap. I forgot to add him and johnL (angry) but I have met both of them and they both climb 5.12. They would both be in lena's group of 5.12 climbers as well.

I guess I am at the other end of the spectrum as compared with several of the posters here. I "know" at least upwards of 50 climbers (I stopped trying to think of more at ~50). Many of them are very competent 5.10/5.11 trad climbers. I can only think of ~4 that I know of that have climbed 5.12. I suspect that there might be another ~4 in that list that have climbed 5.12, but I have never seen it or heard about it happening, I just suspect that they are capable of it.

Welcome to Old Kentuck and I had just broken Tacos' blue Alien. She was a Japanese girl that has since been in a horrible car accident. Anyways, I had just fallen on her Alien and she wasn't happy about it and we had John look at it since he had worked for CCH. I've talked to John a few times about Bermuda, titanium bolts and whatnot. I was actually thinking of taking that job before he did... sounds like it's all over now though. Hope you guys are both doing well!

for the sake of argument, and that I am putting off work responsibilities. On my facebook friends list, I have 133 friends who are climbers. 67 have done minimum 5.12a redpoint/v5 bouldering. 21 are better climbers than me :)

climbers known: 100's 5.12+ maybe 10-20 and that's being generous I agree with other people with the "what's the fascination with 5.12?" I think 5.12 used to be a big milestone for most people. I think almost anyone that starts climbing in a reasonably fit state will eventually achieve at least 5.12a. I think 5.13 is the new 5.12. 13 climbers are much more rare.

I thought about that too but that would be biased toward people who climb a lot. I haven't bought a rope in years. Most climbing areas have pretty centralized parking don't they? A few pollsters at the most popular areas might get some data to work with. Some climbing areas attract different ability levels so it would either have to be somewhere like Smith Rock where all levels are pretty equally represented. In Squamish you could poll the Smoke Bluffs, Check, The Chief and Murrin and get a pretty good sampling. This is the least biased approach I can think of. Around here I would guess that the median climbing grade for trad would be 5.9 and for sport 11-. The distribution would probably approach a Rician.

A few years ago I surveyed ~350 climbers as part of my Masters thesis. Part of the survey asked about the most difficult route ever climbed. Roughly 5% had redpointed 5.12 trad. A few limitations; this survey was conducted only at the Gunks. The scale only includes climbers who identified themselves as primarily traditional lead climbers. If climbers who self-identified as trad, sport, and top-ropers had been all lumped together, the percentage would probably be different.

There is a big difference between being able to climb a few 5.12's and being a 5.12 climber. The true grade you climb is what you can climb any day, on any rock, in any condition, in any sport or trad. Many people who climb 5.12 and up climb with other people who climb 5.12 and up. With that said, their results will be skewed on the high side. Likewise those who climb 5.9 and under tend to climb with more people who climb 5.9 and under so their results to your poll will be skewed on the low side. If I were to list the % of sport only climbers I know (taking out the Trad climbers) who can pull 5.12 sport it would be around 10-15%. If I include sport and trad climbers that percentage drops to 7-10% roughly. Here's the real answer from me though. If I guess on the high side as to the percentage of climbers I know who can climb 5.12 Trad and 5.12 Sport... well, that percentage would be 4-5% on the high side. Grades most climbers quote are like the commercial waist sizes on jeans, you like to believe that your 32" Levi's waist really means you have a 32" waist... but a true measurement will tell you otherwise.

If I had more coffee, I could think of a more comprehensive list of climbers I know. My single cup of coffee list contains 70 climbers of whom 60 (86%) climb 5.12. Jay

In reply to: By 5.12, you must mean sport climbers. By that measure there are tons. By 5.12 trad all around bad ass clmbers, there aren't that many. I estimate somewhere around 5% of people who have led sport climbs can or have led 12a or harder. I estimate way less that 1% of people who have led on gear can or have lead 12a trad or harder. If you bring into the picture all people that have ever climbed, those numbers would go WAY down. There are a lot of climbers that never leave the gym or do not lead if they go outside. As many people have pointed out, the sample pool you ask will give drastically different answers. If you ask climbers hanging out at certain sport crags liek the Motherlode, you might get results suggesting 95% of climbers can hike 5.12.

If I recall correctly, either climbing or Rock and Ice did a poll like that a couple of year ago, and found that only ~25% of respondents (people who subscribed to the magazine and responded) climbed above 5.10. By extrapolating from that, I will say that the percentage of people who climb >5.12 is ~5%. But if I look at people I personally know... let's see. If I take 107 climbers who are on my facebook friends list, 56 of them climb at least 5.12. My verdict is, your poll would be hopelessly skewed, too, because people tend to associate with other of similar ability. 5.12+ climbers are more likely to personally know more than a 'fair' share of other 5.12+ climbers, so it wouldn't be representative... 2nd for not representative. Almost every climber I can think of, a couple dozen, climb 5.12
