As the OP hasnt been active on TN for 8 years..... perhaps we can assume it didnt go well.

I think you might be right. I've climbed a little and you end up with scratches and bumps all over. I dread to think what state you'd be in naked.

I climb into bed nude every night with no scratches, bumps, or bruises.

yes seems very hazardous to do naked.

Just not smart.

Had that same notion at Smugglers Notch in VT, Nope never again got plenty of pics of the hole in my sack to prove it

One of the north eastern states judging by the OP's question in this thread. But this would be a good time of year to be doing t for sure.

Apparantly it is common than I would expect.
Google search contains lots of entries, and most of them are not porn.

OP might have meant free climbing, which is an activity that some will do nude with varying degrees of gear. The ultimate attempt is bare feet and hands, no chalk, no harness, no rope, no pins. Friends from the University of Calgary, which grants actual mountain climbing degrees, have completed naked free climbs. They are all still alive.

I would never make an ascent without at least chalk and ropes, but it is definitely a thing.

Here are a couple more recent ascents by people I do not know.

I am not a climber but would love to try. So if you find something and would like a partner I am in Boston but traveling is not a problem
