Although posted on Boulder CL, the guy has two other posts on Seattle CL.

 

Red & blue webbing, a tri-cam, what look like some Metolius cams, Black Diamond cams (pre-C4's, C4s, C3's), color-coordinated wire gate biners, draw marked with blue & white tape.

 

 

Hahaha! Black Diamond "Cambors"! Yyyup. Stolen gear.

I agree, Steve. If I were to be diagnosed with advanced termianl cancer, I'd quit my job and climb my ass off until the day I expired.

Yeah, I sent the guy a few emails, but I haven't heard back yet. So if you all see a craigslist ad for ice screws and a pair of Aztar ice tools modified to go leashless let me know. I had two bags stolen from my car about a month ago in Bellingham. I have kept my eye open at the local pawn shops and craigslist, but haven't had any luck. chances are its gone, but one can hope.
