My alpine ice tools are the Grivel Air Tech Evo and a Grivel straight shaft Rambo that I bought for $40 at Second Ascent. My steep ice tools are Grivel Tech Wings. If you want to try them out, let me know.

F_ck you. gear is everything. If it wasn't, climbers wouldn't endorse it. Hell I couldn't play basketball until I purchased a pair of air Jordans.

Oh, and the Air Tech Evo Slider - It didn't seem very useful on the Air Tech Evo, even though I climbed a bit of ice with it. The leash was plenty. On snow, the slider never failed to get in the way, even when it was tied up. It's buried in the gear room now.

A few things - I have an Air Tech Evo. The grip tape fell off the first time I used the axe in snow. When it wasn't busy falling off, it was preoccupied with hanging onto snow, making the axe hard to hold. The Goulotte pick is the least brutish of Grivel's current lineup. The Mixte pick is for well, mixed climbing and is quite a lot beefier. In closing, the Air Tech Evo climbs easy ice just fine. Maybe your swing didn't agree with it.

I'm already camped out, waiting for the show.

I think it's called "Morning Ritual"

No problem.

It's the seizure wrestlers Oh GOD!!! -<drool>-

Deal!

still got the 5 pack of Snowcap?

I used to live with a girl who was a wiccan. I left because she slept with another guy, so I have experience in these matters. It was definitely colder than a witches titty. No doubt. I'm pretty sure it was colder than a whore's heart as well, but I only have experience with one.

Could have been a seisure. When I was in hiugh school, I was walking home from my part time job and almost got hit by a guy who was having a seisure. He careened through a few gates before he crashed into a tree and died. Bad mojo

Was the nastiest game of Ultimate in Everett. It was colder than a witches titty out there. The wind was howling and the sleet was mean. We lost. Bad.

Did you leave the prom disappointed, Or did she?

No. I dislike going to Seattle for every reason. There are too many people in such a small place there. I live south in Auburn. Beer is a very compelling reason.

Have you tried Die Bier Stube on Roosevelt and Ravenna (there abouts)?

I have 5.10 Mountain Masters, but the soles are more for rock than trail. The lugs are small and would fill up with mud very quickly. Besides that, they are too heavy for prolonged running. You might want to check out one of the thin Schoeller pants. I have the Prana Titans that are very comfortable and stretchy. I have also had the REI Mistral pants. They are about the same.

I used to share a practice space with a band called "One Hole Over". Maybe someone here knows them?

Oh Shit!!! I'm bringing the pumpkins in!

Where are we now? When we are blind Abandoned faith You left behind Were you betrayed? Or did you lie? Our common fate Our common demise Where is the son? To light the way Along the path Of our dismay Look to the sky On judgement day A human god That was man-made So we lie So we lie So we lie So we lie And so we rise Just to fall down In reality You're never found I'm reaching out With sealed eyes I grab for light Visions decried [Repeat fourth verse] So we lie So we lie So we lie So we lie Face down, arms out Nailed to the cross of doubt Blood runs like rain Drowning for this world in vain Crown of black thorns Human skin, ripped and torn Crown of black thorns Human skin, ripped and torn Where is your savior now? Where is your savior now? Where is your savior now? Where is your savior now?...
