saw a similar device on junkyard wars. they used a bike to crank up the air pressure

I got in 8000 vertical on Sunday.

I got to try some Simond Najas the other weekend and liked them a lot. The grip is very small so my hands were not as tired as with my bd prophets, and the pick sunk with the lightest flick. I actually like the prophets but they are heavy and the grip is wide, and that full-length rubber coating makes it difficult to slide the leash up so I can hit the head to release a stuck tool. I just have the leashes attached to the head now. Funny hearing people call them old stuff since they were top of the line not so long ago.

Here is the link to amazon.com for the Wilderness First Responder text.

The Medicine for Mountaineering is good if you can wade through all that text. Another good one is the accompanying manual to the WFR course, The Wilderness First Responder. It is sometimes at REI and places like that. Here's another good definitive text:

hmm MtnHigh and I were on the North Wall side earlier this year and found the stuff loose down low but not too bad. Up high was good in that open book to the top. guess I'll skip the south side of the ridge.
