Cripes, what is this guy doing that is so full on?
These days, everyone is so scared of rejection they never actually ask someone out, so usually come ons are pretty subtle - and if he's making subtle hints or appears to think your climbing activities are dating activities, just pretend you don't realise. If they're subtle hints that you find offensive just say "Look mate, that's a bit much isn't it?" and if he's asking you out on dates or home for a shag, just say thanks, but no thanks?

I just don't think it's that complicated.

The main problem seems to be your discomfort with the fact that this fella appears to like you when you don't like him - take it as a compliment, and deliver any knockbacks kindly.
