Climbing partner in Seoul

[mrgalit]

Hi all,

My name is Omri, I'm an Israeli climber and have recently moved to Seoul. I heard there's a lot of good climbing around, which is great because maybe I'll have a shot at becoming a decent rock climber

I'm looking for climbing partners to train with and head out on weekends with.

I climb a bit of rock (around low 5.10's sport lead) though have done more mountaineering recently (up to alpine grade D+/TD). Also happy to climb ice (WI3-ish).

Please reach out via PM here or to my email at [email protected]

Hi Omri! Are you still living and climbing in Seoul? My post in a previous thread:

I will be arriving in Seoul this Saturday with availability to climb Sunday (Oct 13), Tuesday (Oct 15), Saturday (Oct 20), and Sunday (Oct 21). I will bring my double trad rack (with triples of some cams), nuts, draws, and a 60m rope. I would like to climb Insu Bong, but happy for any outdoor rock climbing. Seoraksan National Park looks great, but I'm not sure about logistics on how to get there.

Happy to lead moderate trad (5.8-5.11) and try some harder trad or sport lines into 5.11+/5.12 depending on how stiff the ratings turn out to be. I have a trad background climbing in the U.S. and now living/climbing in Hong Kong.

Let me know if anyone is keen to link up. Thanks! Scott
