I spent three hours today taking the Skilled Top Rope climber course at MetroRock in Everett, an indoor rock climbing gym. I took this same class last year (and even bought a harness, climbing shoes, ATC, and carbiner) but never did anything with it because I had no one to climb with. This year I'm serious about climbing (and bouldering) even if that means making new friends. I've already signed up for The Rumney Tour in June.
