Anyone else climb?
I just got my new climbing gear in today shoes, chalk bag a few more Caribeans, chalk bag, and a nice momentum style harness and wanted to see if anyone else here shares my passion for climbing.
Whether it be strictly indoor climbing gyms, or out door group trips.
Let me know I have some planned trips coming up this year that should really be a blast, all level from newbies to experienced lvl 15s

Start out by going to a rock gym, they have routes for beginners all the way to level 15's the closest ones in your area are
Wall Street Rock Gym - more info »
216 Tingley Ln, Edison, NJ
Write a review
and this one
Garden State Rocks - more info »
705 Ginesi Dr, Morganville, NJ -Category: Gyms
Write a review
"NJ Newest New Indoor Rock Climbing Gym New Jersey climbers wall street rock gym morganville ..." gardenstaterocks.com
You cant go wrong going to a rock gym if you wanna learn. 99% of climbers help eachother out even if your new to it. They always have harness rentals, and a belay instruction.
If you ever wanna make a trip out of it come on down to EliteClimbing in moorestown area where I can be found.

Its actually a good question for about 25 bucks you have the harness and shoe rental and your pass for the day.
