I would recommend starting at a climbing gym. Learning proper safety in a controlled environment is number one. I would also highly recommend that you find someone that you know to pick it up with you. You’ve got to know and trust the person you climb with. They have your life in their hands.

If you climb at a gym long enough you’ll meet some of the local climbers that would probably be willing to take you to a outdoor climbing spot. That’s when the real fun begins!
