Tons of toilet material...most issues spanning 18 years from 1990 to 2008---$25

Size 10 Scarpa Alpha mountaineering boots---$60 Wall Hauler-seen 3 walls---$25 BD 5 step aiders(1 pair)-used maybe twice---$20

Climbed cya yesterday. It definitely has filled in more since Alpine Dave's photo. The #4 Camalot is key (& the fixed pin helpful) on the lower part. Nice fat ice above. The upper curtain on Amazonia (far left) was a little lean still but filling in. Then free hanging pillars to the right of mentioned climb are about 5 ft from touching down. They would be pretty impressive leads. The winds yesterday made for some COLD climbing! Keep the reports coming!

FS---A5 double ledge with fly-$300. Ledge is in good shape. Will trade for tele or AT skis/bindings (appr. 180 cm)

I have a A5 double with fly that I'd part with. Send a pm if interested.

Climb: Dragontail-North Face Date of Climb: 4/6/2004 Trip Report: Just wanted to give this route a thumbs up and tell folks they should put this on their to do list. Partner and I both agreed it was the best alpine route we've done in the Cascades. Cruxes were grade 3 ice, thin (mostly) and narrow in places with mixed moves thrown in as well. Lower half of the route consisted of this type of climbing interspersed with snowfields. Thanks to the folks last weekend for kicking steps for us. Enjoy! Some photos are in the gallery. Gear Notes: Small rock rack with with screws.

Scarpa's response regarding Inverno liners: Justin, Thanks for writing. I would suggest handwashing the liners with Woolite, and drying thoroughly. Stuff newspaper into the liners, to help soak up the moisture, and continue to do this until all the moisture has been soaked up. If you have any shoe trees, use them to keep the liners from shrinking. I hope that helps.

Along the same lines...My inners for my Inverno boots are in desperate need of a cleansing. I'm assuming a soap and water treatment would be fine--- but bleach? I've emailed Scarpa and am waiting for a reply, any other suggestions?

Another follow up as of 3-2-04 Moonline-There but very thin @ bottom Snowline-Had the most ice of the three/in about 3+ conditions 2 Low 4 Zero- No ice on the bottom Nothing but the Breast- 1st approach pitch was thin with better ice above. Upper pitch was in good condition still Murchison-Great shape. Upper pitch a little wetter than lower stuff. Virtual Reality-Lower half is there, but upper is melted out Panther Falls-Super fun route. Technical climbing for the grade. Make sure to just walk off the top. We chose to try to rap back down to our packs from above..much easier to walk back down. Weepping Wall-Looked to be all there still, but could tell sun had been hitting it pretty hard. Polar Circus-Looked beautiful, make sure to take a number the moment you arrive in Banff. Bourgeau Right-Climbed by another Seattle crew and reported to be in fatter than normal conditions Enjoy!
