Place to get climbing gear near Rothsay or St. John?

[Bdagirl]

I wanted to ask if anyone could direct me to a place close to Rothsay or St. John where I could buy some climbing shoes and a harness. I live in Bermuda and there isn't anywhere to get climbing gear here, but I am visiting Rothsay in August, so thought I'd try to find out if I might be able to get some gear while I'm there... Thanks! Heather

There are no stores in Saint John that carry climbing gear. The Scout shop has a few biners and slings but that is all. My recommendation would be to order from MEC and have it shipped to Rotheasay so that it is there when you arrive.

If you want some climbing partners let us know. There are many active climbers in Rothesay with some cliffs near by that are fun to play on.
