$250 is way too much for these. Get some fatter skis. The heli stinx are old school. They'd only be good if you plan on doing alot of really long tours were light weight is crucial.

If you are worried about protecting the AA's from the cold, just use AA Lithium batteries instead. They withstand cold much better than Alkaline batteries.

yeah. I have a pair of Vasak's with this attachment. In general, the crampons are great, but the new lever feels like it is going to snap off when you cam it over. I wound up sanding a 1/4" off the heel sole of my boots with a belt sander to ease up the tension on the crampon mechanism. That being said, once they are on, they are not going to come off.

Brand new, never worn. Mens Medium. Made from scholler fabric. This is the newest version/color. Weight 12 oz. Great for mountaineering, ski touring, ice climbing etc. Retails for $122. Sell for $75 which includes UPS ground to anywhere in lower 48. Paypal preferred.

Almost all the outdoor clothing I have bought has weighed more than advertised. My Cloudveil Enclosure Parka was the biggest offender: MFR weight: 23 oz. postal scale: 36 oz. I expected a few extra ounces, but that difference was unacceptable. I returned the jacket.

Sold. Thanks.
-
It's used, but has plenty of life left. No rips, tears, or broken zippers. Always stored unstuffed. Very warm for only 15 oz. Great for ski touring, mountaineering, climbing or whatever. I got the hooded version for birthday, so I don't need this one anymore. $35 + shipping from SLC, UT. PM me if you are interested

I like the logbook function on the Suunto Vector. Start it at the beginning of the adventure and stop it at the end. Shows total vert, laps, time etc. Great for ski touring. Rarely use the compass, but it's only a few bucks more than the no compass version (altimax)

bag is sold. Thanks

Feathered Friends Hummingbird sleeping bag. It has the optional 800+ fill down. The size is regular. Left zipper. Weighs about 1lb 9oz. The shell is nylon. Don't know exactly which type of nylon, but it is somewhat transparent (you can see the down feathers inside though it). It packs down to the size of half a loaf of bread. This is a very nice ultralight sleeping bag, but I need the $ for school & I probably won't use it much in the next few years anyway. It has always been stored unstuffed and has no stains, rips, broken zipper teeth, or smells. $125 plus shipping from 84109 (SLC, UT). I prefer paypal or money orders. I will ship upon receipt of payment. Email me at mmk2@comcast.net if you are interested. Thanks, Mike

Patagonia DAS Parka. The size is medium. The color is blue. I bought this jacket for Aconcagua earlier this year & only wound up wearing it a couple of times on the mountain. It's a great jacket, but I don't need it anymore. It's in excellent condition & would be hard to tell from new. A great choice for alpine, expedition, or ice climbing adventures. This is one of the best made & most popular synthetic insulated jackets going. Weight is 27 oz. See www.patagonia.com for more details. $125 plus shipping from 84109

The cables are typically glued in with epoxy. It's not really a safety issue. It's only purpose is to give you somewhere to clip the device.

Who buys a million dollar sports car with an automatic transmission? Lame.

Looks like everything is gone except the fabulous Mountainsmith pack. A few buyers have yet to pay, so some items may become available again.

Cloudveil Koven or the lighter Drizzle Jacket are both really nice, athletic fitting shells.
