Climb On helps you find your next climbing partner. Create a climbing profile, choose your area and browse nearby climbers. Compare climbing preferences, connect, and use your conversation to agree on a place and time.

The useful details stay close together: your climbing styles, availability, belay preferences, gear and optional gym. You can get from “I’m free Thursday” to a climb on the calendar without scattering the conversation across several places.
## Make your profile useful

Start with a photo, your climbing styles and your climbing area. Your profile can also include the grades you’ve been climbing, when you’re available, belay preferences and the gear you bring.

Your gym is optional. Type the name and add a city when it helps identify the location. That gives other climbers a familiar point of connection, especially when you’re looking for a regular indoor partner.

You can build the profile around the information you’d usually exchange before a climb. A Tuesday evening, a sport-climbing plan or a shared gym can say more than a long introduction.

Choose the area where you want to climb

Your hometown and your next climbing destination can be different places. Climb On lets your climbing area follow your plans.

Traveling for a month? Choose the area where you’ll be climbing and start talking with climbers there. Staying close to home? Use your local area and the times you usually have free.

How to connect

Choose **Climb On!** when you’d climb with the climber whose profile you’re reading. When they choose Climb On! too, you’re connected and your conversation opens.

Choose **Bail** to continue to the next climber. A rewind can restore your most recent eligible Bail when your plans or your thumb have moved a little quickly.

A **Stick Clip** starts a conversation directly with a climber who accepts them. It gives you room to introduce yourself and suggest something specific.

Start with the details you share

When you connect, the app adds a short summary of shared details to the conversation. It might be the gym you both listed, an evening you both have free or the climbing you enjoy.

That is a starting point for your own message. “Tuesday evenings work for me too” already gives the conversation somewhere to go.

Put a climb on the calendar

Once you’ve discussed the idea, propose a climb with a place and time. Your partner can accept, and the plan stays with your conversation. Downloaded plans and conversation history remain readable when you’re away from a connection.

After the climb, both climbers can confirm that it happened. Your climbing history then reflects the sessions you’ve confirmed together.

Keep a log and explore the next area

Your climbing log holds sessions, route or problem names, grades and attempts. You can add a note for next time, record a session on its own or begin from a completed plan. The log belongs to your account; the climb you confirm together remains its own shared record.

Nearby crags gives you a map and list of sourced climbing areas. Open the available route information, follow its source and share the area in a conversation. The climb still takes shape between you and your partner; the place information gives you something specific to discuss.
