Rambocomp monos for 113 plus 20 bucks shipping and duty and everything else. Something like 170 or so here in Washington. Sportextreme.com kicks ass.

Thanks for the info on the tools, but I bought a pair of used cobras after trying them out at Cascade Crags. If anyone has any more info on waterfall ice in the Pierce/King county areas, i'd like to hear about it.

I would just like to get some info on getting started on ice. I have been going up to Cascade Crags in Everett, and I think I am about ready for the real stuff. If you have any bits of wisdom that might help me get started. Also if you know of any easy routes that would suite a beginner. Brad
