  1. My guess would be because your asking about hand drills not power drills
  2. I doubt many traditional climbers would waste their time targeting Little Si to steal draws. Fact of the matter is .. dirt bag climbers exists in all elements of the sport. I hope you took some time to clean it up and replace it with some new webbing. To leave gear hanging and expect it to be there when you come back is pretty naive.
  3. Have you tried purchasing a set "cramp-o-matic" front frames? Both of these retailers have been pretty good with Grivel parts in the past. Mountain Tools The Mountaineer
  4. Well made, Durable as hell and cost effective. IMO the best overall value for alpine climbing packs. CCW Chaos CCW Chernobyl
  5. For Sale - BD Black Prophet Straight Shaft ice tool. Includes 2 recurve picks, 1 adze, 1 hammer & 2 screws for the attachments. I'd rate it a 7~8 out of 10. Shaft has 4 small nicks/tears in the rubber none of which go all the way to the shaft. $45 plus shipping from Vancouver. Can arrange pickup/hand-off in greater PDX area @ no cost.
  6. I have a old version of the Bullet. Definitely bombproof and haul-able if needed. I had two lash points sew on to carry an axe/tool works pretty good. My only complaints .. mine is 16L, a bit too small for me, and the shoulder straps are too close together behind my neck.
  7. This number may also do the trick. At $26 it's pretty much disposable. MEC Travel Light Top Loader
  8. this is similar to how the Mountain Tools Speed Racks are intended to be used by fastening them to the shoulder straps of your pack.
  9. Anyone ever used these? Mountain Tools Speed Racks
  10. it shows the Nano because it's used on the Mach Express Quickdraw ... do you need a bib?
  11. straight from the horses mouth .. Camp Photon recall
  12. That's really sad ... so much great history
  13. How about Marty, Joan, Cristine or some other Cascadian hardwoman that is no longer with us? My personnel favorite would be Joan. She's got to be the first real hardwoman to come out of the NW.
  14. Don't buy a hammer longer than 50cm. I could be wrong, but more than likely you'll end up regretting it.
  15. Are you talking to me?
  16. GP has it right .. cams are over kill for the Spalding, a lot of people don't even bother with them on the Exum.
  17. one comment on your girth hitched picket ... using a Petzl string or any sort of o-ring gizmo on an open loop sling is bad news and a huge potential safety issue The danger of open slings no disrespect intended .. with all the recent "newbie" posts, I wouldn't want this to go unnoticed.
  18. a bunch of M11+'s just got dumped onto eBay as well
  19. wow .. glad the injuries were as minimal as they are .. lucky guy. I'm wondering if the right hand tool, flaying around by his right knee on its leash, had anything to do with his popping off? Lucky he didn't get stabbed on the way down Reasonable argument for an advantage to leash-less?
  20. GoLite Clearance Closet mens and womens apparel, packs and shelters 40~70% off
  21. ditto .. if you think your post is worthy of immortality find a relevant & constructive way to post it without the spray.
