Oh Wow if they have it I get to gitme one of them boots

they are fine for anything rock, snow, ice they have the back crampons bail so they are great for newmatic crampons I won’t go climbing WF vertical ice with them although they might do good for a pitch or two. This means your hill have too much room that it is slipping up and down try to lace them in one of these nifty ways and get an arch support to take from the volume of your feet if it still doesn’t work then it is time for a new boots

So the Jury are out and the Raichle All Degree are Winner! I used them on Rainier yesterday and they were broken in after only 2 miles Pro: REALLY comfortable, Really LITE, Kicking steps was a comfortable task with them, Really warm (Gore-Tex) but fairly cool on the lower trail (stream crossing was not a problem even when I had my boot immersed calf high in the water Con: ALLOT of Seams!!! MUST seam seal the boots with Seam Grip (DO NOT USE SIL-NET) or Durability WILL be an issue (but hay…that is why these boots are SOOOOOOO comfortable)

Not really in the way of alpine as you know it …but gothic is a good one long ass climb. some stuff on Pharoh mountains, my favorite is Echo cliffs, some less traveled destinations but it is all trad. there is TONS to do in the Daks just stop at the Mountaineers in Keene valley of route 73 and they even will volunteer info for the current routes and conditions. BTW, the Mountaineer is GREAT store in the same fashion of Rock and Snow in New-Paltz (the Gunks) the only Biff I have with that store is the prices…really High!!! but there are some other Gear store in Lake Placid where u can find good bargains

Have a Patagonia H2o-no with operating zippers and such great condition $300 OBO

Lembone, I will be the first one to CRY!!!! it gets me in line I wish I could be bad ass like you

I am available for 2-3 days trip anywhere in the Cascade...but still need a ride

4 pieces Tama "Rockstar" Pearl 10"x14" interchangeable maple shell Snare ALL DRUMS, HARDWARE AND CASES INCLUDED Awesome Hardware selection and extras!!!! unfortunately I have to depart from my most beloved drum set (finance) so I'm looking to give it a good home the pictures

I just got the Raichle all degree boots that fit my foot great at the store but I haven’t tried them outside yet so the jury still out

For cold temperature the Ice-Sparring from Granite Gear did really well But for the normal down to -5 ice climb I like the Dry-Tool from BD I have given the Cloudveil Ice-Flow a try last winter and they seems good but a little too balky for my every day use but other with colder extremities syndrome swear by them

Shift or automatic? I am looking for stick shift preferably

Looking for beater car to do small renovations jobs around town station wagon will be ideal but would love a beat up Truck (farmers truck) ~$1000

you only need an axe for the steep stuff for a slog a pole will be ALLOT better I climb with both an axe and a pole I find it to be the best combo

I have the Extreme S and they work for the purpose I got them (WF Ice and short winter approaches) I wont even consider long day approaches with them. However I just got the Raichle all degree boots that fit my foot great at the store but I haven’t tried them outside yet so the jury still out

Pickets Yeats Glacier screws BD Icefall screws Grivel 360

65cm what else... works like a charm

I climb it with Jeffrey yesterday and I will second the notion of at least 50 for some reason it seems steeper, HH seems very steep too I thought it was steeper then 45 but what do I know I just know that down climbing some of it was weird …yep it was a long day

after doing Fisher chimneys yesterday and Had to endure two 2" diam blisters on my ankles and horrible pain to the palm of my feet I am tossing away my La Sportiva Pacific crest boots and going with the most cushy and comfortable boots I can find that can climb reasonably well paired with alum pons any ideas

available any time even short notice but need a ride and have all the gear 206-328-2446
