Looking for Busan climbing partner.....

[riddle]

I am pretty new to Busan and am looking for a climbing partner. I am not too advanced (I can only lead up to easier 5.10s) but I have all the sport gear for anything possible with a 50m rope. My schedule is pretty open; I can go anytime except for Sunday. Let me know if you can go out climbing sometime.

Thanks

Call me when you are willing. Weekends when the weather is good or Thursdays seem to be great for me.

Hi - I'm heading down to Busan Jul 1-3 or 4 with friends from work and would like to do some climbing down there. I know the weather is going to suck - but the outdoor wall looks fun... maybe it stays dry? how's the gym? do they sell harnesses in case I can sucker my pals into going? any good hikes/overhangs not precluded by bad weather?

thanks,
Mary

I haven't actually been to the Dongnae wall when it was raining, but the guy there mentioned that the wall is generally somewhat shielded from the elements. They seemed to have a limited amount of equipment for use (especially because they teach a climbing class a few days a week, so they are bound to have some stuff) but I would definitely call ahead to make sure they will rent/lend it to you. I don't know of any other places in Busan that would be good to try in bad weather except for the gym, but it is really small.

I think I might try and make the trip down sometime saturday. Anyone have a floor I could crash on if I make the trip?

Also, is there anywhere I could buy some rock-climbing shoes that fit? that would be a big plus?
