I'm planning my first ever outdoor bouldering trip to Brimham Rocks in the next few weeks and was hoping for a bit of advice.

I climb indoors around V4 consistently and have done a few V5s, but I've never climbed outside before. I've got a crash pad and a RockFax subscription, but I'm not really sure which areas are best to start in or what grades/problems make for a good first day.

Is Brimham a good place to learn, and is it common to meet other climbers there? I'll probably be going on my own, so I'm wondering if people are generally happy to chat, offer beta or give the occasional spot if needed.

Any recommendations for a good circuit of beginner/intermediate classics that are close together would also be much appreciated!

Thanks!
