So, i know there are other climbers on this board, hows your year been ? I've had a slack outdoor year, but a good indoor year. I gave up smoking a couple of months ago, and its really helped me do that little bit better on the wall.
I even managed a couple of E3 climbs in swanage this weekend :-)

Yeah, i love indoor climbing, i'm lucky to live near a real good wall.


great practise for outdoor climbing for sure, and easyer to find time for.
but I love the great outdoors, and really need to get a lot more time for it next summer :-)

I also enjoy bouldering, once a week i go bouldering, and once a week i climb with a partner. both the indoor pics are boulder problems.
Traversing is a good thing to do alone as well.
just bought myself a new pair of shoes, there still virgins to the outdoors. Slip ons for once :-)

same here, I love climbing too. but it's time to climb more often, like once a week indoor and less bouldering. bouldering ids nice, but I enjoy 'real' climbing better

I've done some repelling, I won't do it again! That was to scary for me.

i'm heavily addicted to rock climbing. i climb indoors to train for climbing outdoors. lately i've been going once or twice a week. it's easy where i live because there are so many places with great routes. plus, you can even climb all winter as long as its a sunny day and warm enough - last january i climbed 5 days in el dorado canyon!

Nice, where i mainly climb is only 1.5 hours away on the south coast. swanage, uk. not a bad spot, but only short sport routes.
You can also climb all year there, though it English weather :-( So you can get wet.

awesome pics!!
if i didnt just use all my upload space in hunting i would upload some of my outdoor pics
my best climbing buddy has been pretty sick the second half of the summer so i havent done a whole lot.
i did do some mountaineering though, and i fell in love! climbed mt. rainier (14,411ft) it was an amazing experience crossing 600ft crevasses and such!
