Rock Climbing in Chengdu

[Liam]

Yeah, I`ve gathered that as well, although I read that there is a semitrad crag outside the city about 1.5 hours. I’ve got some training to do before I’m ready for anything substantial, though.

Liam, and anyone else:

Up for some climbing tomorrow? I might be able go during the day, definitely can in the evening.

I’m down in the evening. Same place as last time, near the Carrefour?

[Brian]

Yes

[Liam]

I’m in as well. Say around 530-6?

[Brian]

That’s a little early for me, usually I’d be eating dinner, but I could do it. What do you think Charlie?

A little early for me as well, I’ll probably head over after dinner which would be around 7 – 7:30pm.

[Brian]

I think I’ll arrive between 6:30 and 7

ya, with the sun starting to come out in force this week, i could be ready for a trip to a crag. time to get off the deck.

Hi guys I’ve just arrived in Chengdu for a week now. If u’re climbing again these couple of weeks and want some diversity (ie. female/ chinese, haha) let me know. Not a great climber but just wanna do some indoor sports and rebuild some strength

[Brian]

I will climb at least one day Tues/Wed/Thurs this week, but I’m hoping for reasonably clean air.

I could do for getting out of the city sometime soon as well, the 污染 isn’t agreeing with me very well. It looks like from here that you can get a bus or some sort of set-price vehicle (whatever 小车 and 中型车, written above the map, means) for about 50 元 total. Of course, if somebody has a vehicle, that would be way easier.

Everybody’s been really friendly the times that I’ve gone, I’m thinking of getting a membership and will probably go Tuesday and Thursday evening this week. Plus there’s a guy named Ray who works there and is studying climbing at University (not sure what that means) and acts sort of as a coach/building routes.

[Karen]

cool. i’ll go on thurs, ~7pm,

open-air shopping mall next to Carrefour and it’s called 生存者攀岩馆.

The address is: 武侯区紫竹北街85号大世界商业广场E座4-5楼

I’ll probably be outta breath within an hour. Feel free say hi if you spot me struggling on the rocks..

[Karen]

ok, change of plans. i’m going 雅安tmr. Shall climb next week instead! HEHE :p

[Brian]

I’ll be there tomorrow, and probably next week too.

[Liam]

I’m now a member! So I’ll probably be there all of the time, lookin like a chump.

[Ian]

Hopefully will be heading back to Yangshuo in the summer if anyone is interested in doing a couple of weeks climbing.

[Karen]

i went yesterday and it’s fun! aching forearms and butt though haha. will be there again on 4 April. cya if i cya 🙂

[Liam]

Cool, we usually go later in the evening like 7 or 8, hope to see you in the future.

@Ian: I’d be totally down to check out Yangshuo, if I can coordinate my schedule/afford it. Have you been there before? I don’t know much about it, except that it’s becoming a sort of climbing mecca.

[Zintha]

How long do u have train with this before u can actually take on the outdoors? I mean unofficially, just like an idea
