Vietnam?!

I'll be working at Slopony Adventures (www.slopony.com) starting Dec 2007. . . Vietnam has a lot of rock, and Halong Bay is reminiscent of Thailand many years ago. If you want to get in on the groundfloor, develop routes and find fresh lines. . . DWS, Bouldering and a terrific country to explore. . . consider a trip to Vietnam!

If you want to do some bolting, talk to Erik at Slopony-- the rock is karst and on/near the water, so any gear is subject to corrosion.

I'll know more in a few weeks! I leave on the 20th for Hanoi.

A few years ago I met a guy in Dalat who had an "adventure sports" company. . . he wanted to offer technical climbing and had me scope areas, show his guides how to climb, etc. . . I also know there are some gyms and Vietnamese climbers, though not so many yet, I think. The climate varies N to S-- Vietnam is a big (long!) country, but I think it's climbable most of the year. . .

27crags, climbervoice, 8a and many others are amazing sites, but sometimes, expecially if you worked a lot to envision, bolt, clean routes or boulders, you want to monetize a little your efforts.

9b can help you in this aim.

As you can see here, in 9b there are many " topo groups ".

You can add a discussion in every "topo group".

In your discussion you can edit and publish your own climbing topoguide, as a "paywall", a "destination page", requiring climbers their payment by credit card or paypal to access and read, even on SMARTPHONES (iphones, android phones, ...)
