  1. i own said shell. paid $220 at second ascent for it(sample). if your looking for minimalism and great fit look no further. mine has just a chest pocket, nothing else. i've used it backcountry boarding as well as ice/alpine climbing. the shell rides above the harness making access to your gear loops easy. i'll wear it in conjunction with a hooded fleece underneath. i wouldn't pay $390 for it though. last time i looked 2nd ascent had quite a few arc'teryx samples.

  6. I did the route five or so years ago and remember the "drop" off the top of the arete as well as anything on the route. Two years ago I summited via the South Ditch and to my disappointment noticed rap bolts on the summit block of the arete. (not the true summit) I always considered the "drop" as part of the climb and thought it was cutting the excitement short by making it a rappel. From Shane's report it sounds like there are no longer bolts on the top of the arete, is this true?

    I am normally not into bolt chopping but just like the ones that appeared a number of years back on Library Ledge, I wouldn't be sorry to see them gone. [hell no]

     

    *Hey Layton, what gives? Why be critical of someone elses fine report? Reread some of yours, notice any excessive details/spray? You chestbeaters who race home after your outings so you can "splatter" all about it on this site crack me up. Do you even make it in the house before you start spraying? [Roll Eyes]

    No one should have to read this crap on a climber's forum. Get lost dickhead!

  7. quote:


    Be carefull using a reverso to do a single rope "one strand" rappel, especialy if it is a skinny chord. There isn't much friction there. My buddy had to wrap the rope around his leg and hold the rope with two gloved hands o remain in control on a 200ft rap with one 9.8 mil rope.Just something to watch out for.

     

    Use multiple locking biners. It increases the braking power dramaticly.
