ok i am not complaning, i am just seeing how many other people out there are in the same situation, I live in the suburbs, I am to young to drive, I am the only person in my family to drive, and i want to climb outside sooo bad and there is nowhere within 4 hours that is at least someone decent and even if there was i would have no one to drive me, I want to climb harder and I know that to do that i need to go outside more but there is simply no where to go. I know alot of people have it worse, but I am just wondering if there is anyone else out there stuck in suburbia.

Try gluing on some holds under bridges or on the back of abandoned dockyards, Baltimore has tons of run down areas you could set up an outdoor toprope/boulder wall. Think safe and creative.

I live in Colorado so I am not to fair away form climbing but I lost my license after I turned 16. So when you can drive don’t be stupid like me and lose it drive like a granny. Now I beg my parents to take me who are so mad and think that I don’t deserve to be driven to the canyon to climb.
