The Blackstone Rock Climbing Meetup

"Hey... I'm always looking to go climbing, and my home gym is BRG in Woburn. I want to do some good outdoor climbing over in Quincy or the Gunks this summer, so send me a message if you want to go!"

"Hi all! It's been a while since I've done rock climbing, about 3 years. I used to climb at Gravity Rock Gym in Franklin. Looking to get back into it. Never done the outside thing, but willing to try!"

"Hi! I'm a new climbing, interested in bouldering and sport climbing. I climb VERY often in Purgatory Chasm in Sutton, MA. The Chasm is about 20 minutes north east of Blackstone, up Rt. 146. Glad to "meet" you all. come to Purgatory!"

"Hey all, I just started getting into bouldering and such... I was just at the RI Rock Gym today... I'm very much a beginner, but was seeing if anyone wanted to get together to do some bouldering at Lincoln Woods sometime. Just got a new crash pad!"

"Hi. I am relatively new to climbing, I want to pursue the sport but I am having trouble meeting others for belaying, doing outdoor climbs, etc. I've been to the Rock Gym -loved it, had to rent a belayer though. looking forward to attending the next"

"Hey! well whadaya know, Selby, 'sup man? not too surprised to find you on this list. so far nobody's gone to the RIRG for the meets scheduled by the list organizer. I'm going to try to head up to Kinsman Notch next week for some late season ice, it'll be a weekday though. "

"Hi, I have never climbed anything other than a ladder but am willing to give this a try."

"I got into ice climbing a couple years ago, migrated to outdoor rock last summer. I live 10 minutes from College Rock and 20 minutes from Purgatory. Looking for other beginners to climb with! Missed the last meetup -- When's the next one? "

"OH no you di'nt! I was at CR back in january on a particularly nice day, was at QQ three weekends ago, and doing some "ice bouldering" woth my new tools and poons at purgatory chasm on march 1st. I'm bumming that this saturday is supposed to be crappy ;-( "

"Welcome Robb, Well I beat you outdoors. I went to College Rock on Thursday. It was cold and chance of rain, but had a great time. Definitely have the winter hibernation fat going on! It was a last minute decision, but a good one. No bugs, no humidity, and no climbers! "

"Hello, I was a member at the rock gym in Bethal ME, till I moved to Mass four years ago. I was looking to get back into climbing and searching for a gym near Norfolk when I found this group. looking forward to meeting everyone!"

"Hi! I've been climbing since 2002. I live 2.5 miles from College Rock in hopkinton. it's great to have another local resouce to hook up with climbers. I can be found @ College Rock most summer weekday evenings."

"Hi, I've been climbing since 1985...mostly top roping outdoors or at RI Rock Gym. During the summer my local crag is College Rock in Hopkinton. "

"Hey! Have done the occasional climb and loved it. Metrorock is awesome, but a bit of a hike, so looking for folks to check out some of the southern Mass options."

"Hiya! My husband and I have recently moved from Canada, and although I have climbed before, the climbing scene is still pretty new to both of us. We just joined MetroRock and love it. If anyone ever wants to hook up for a climb, just e-mail! "

"Well, um-- I plan on climbing but could use some help with the belay stuff. Cheers. Geoff"
