i dabbled in it for a bit... i'm told i have teh perfect frame for it, but it doesn't hold my interest enough... not enough of an adrenaline charge for me personally.
climbers come from all over the world to climb the Stawamus Chief in Squamish BC... about 30mins south of Whistler and about an hour from downtown Vancouver.
Squamish is known for its world class climbing conditions... I'm sure your buddy has probably heard of it.

used to climb 5.10's and was working on trying 5.11 but never got that good. I ended up blowing out some fingers and had to quite a few years ago.
I still climb at the gym every once in a while.
I've also been ice climbing in Alaska.
Climbing is VERY addicting.

From the creators of Front Range Freaks, an inspired filmic collage featuring mind-blowing climbing and adventure footage from around the globe. Great giveaways, raffles and signings. Also a look into the best of Utah's desert crack climbing. Swiss climbing star Didier Berthod's first ascent of the hardest crack in Indian Creek!

Spent a lot of time climbing in junior high school with the sierra club. climbed in yosemite, nor cal, etc.
Buy some shoes and do some bouldering or go with friends with experience and gear to find out if your really into it. It can get expensive.
create a fake wall in your garage and do two fingered pull ups.
