Introduction

I've done a lot of gym climbing and some outdoor climbing, but my previous gym in Fort Lauderdale had walls only 22ft high. I moved back to DC in September '07 and I'm now a solid 5.9 climber at Sportrock Alexandria.

Preferred Climbing Gym? Favorite Outdoor Climbing Spot?

Outside - Red Rocks outside Vegas or The Gunks in upstate NY. Preferred gym - The one in Amsterdam was nice.

Favorite other sports or outdoor activities?

snowboarding, SCUBA diving

Have you been Top Roping, Sport Leading, or Traditional Lead climbing ?

Um, yes. I tried trad leading on one 5.6 pitch and I sport led on one 5.7 or 5.8. I want to get back to sport leading at the gym; I'm almost ready to take the test.

Favorite climb ratings

Outdoor: 5.8 multipitch trad. Indoor: 5.8-5.10a balancy stuff w/ lots of overhangs and/or aretes

Age Range :20-27, 28-35, 36-43, 43-50, 50+ ?
