Seeking other Rec or production climbers in the Albany, NY area..

Albany/Greene & Columbia Counties

I've never seen a climber in this area & i've lived here my entire 33 years. Am i not looking up enough??
 
I live in Berkshire county MA, based out of Sheffield, but we work in Columbia county. I've also been known to travel a little for a rec climb...

I actually lived in Co. County for a year or so then moved back to the Albany area, good to know there are other climbers around. Climbed for the first time a couple days ago just so you know where i'm at climb wise..

Can i ask what systems you prefer to climb at? Your level of climbing abilities? I take it when you say you work in Co. County you mean youre production climbing?

edit: I am a production climber but I am always down for a good climb off the clock...

The majority of my climbing is with the rope wrench/ SRT. We do a fair amount of dormant pruning in the winter months and I almost always double rope that phase. Using usually a 40' rope, all short small stuff. I've been climbing my whole life, grew up in the business, but professionally, coming to a close on my 4th year.

I prefer to say "production arborist" i would love to get to climb everyday. Some days I'm in the log truck, others the bucket. Sometimes supervising(least favorite) spent the 5 workdays before thanksgiving stringing xmas lights out of the bucket on the condition that I get to climb all this week.
