Oh I quickly realized that buying the Pro version was the thing to do. im using Claude code, which is suited to my level…not an IDE. ive worked with some really smart people and the process it uses is uncannily similar. The actual coding part is more black box but when it troubleshoots it tells you what it’s checking and why. It took it like 8 iterations to get it right but it did. I thinks the one part I’m wondering about it how good can it get at actually enabling my vision of what I want. It may just come down to my ability to write prompt rather than Claude not being able to execute.

What a Goodwill find!

Unbelievable....this is version .01. It has issues. But I just made this in an hour using natural language prompts. https://cascadeclimbers.com/forum/trsearch/ Does it work well? Not really. But as a POC pretty cool. I'm not a coder. I ran out of tokens for the day, so I'll pick it up the next time I have time.

Anyone out there "vibing"? I just started playing around with Claude. Before I was thinking hiring out for a developer to handle creating new functionality (and restoring some things we used to have). But Claude has me thinking otherwise, and maybe we can keep it inhouse. The most immediate need is for a Trip Report Search capability. Search all the Trip Reports by: Area/TR Forum Author/Submitter (V2 can include other party members if they are tagged into the TR) Month or Month Collection (Season) Date Range (Radio button so time/date would be radio button/either but not both) Keyword Photos-Yes/No FA/FWA/FFA ....maybe just start with FA yes/no ? My day job has me pretty busy to the point of exhaustion on many days, and my free time is often trying to find time to either get exercise for myself and my dog. I do plan on retiring at some point in a couple years (though that could happen sooner, as that is the way the world is these days). So I have limited time, which will change in the future. But for now.... Anyone else trying out Claude or another model? I'm considering purchasing Claude right now. I'm also looking a one of Jetbrains offerings, though I'm still researching that.

I don’t use that site. Perhaps there are more people over there. I think it’s a corporate site, owned by OnX. it’s another place you could offer stuff for sale. You could also put it on Craigslist or Facebook marketplace.

I shared a picture of the rack you’re selling on Instagram. There are a lot of people who no longer come here but follow our instagram account. I stopped using the Facebook account we have. But doing that got more eyes on your stuff. I don’t really like doing it, but need to remind the Instagram generation we still exist and are an alternative when/if they ever get sick of “being the product” .

They are all in the same boat. We have people come through here looking for that kind of thing all the time. Be patient and give it time.

It’s a valuable but niche item. I agree you could sell it for more but you’ll need to be patient. It’s “people who are climbing Denali or similar “ so not the biggest pool of people. But they exist and we’ve had people on here looking for a bag just like this relatively recently.

I think that is fair! Like any sale of used stuff, you gotta get the right buyer. But those pieces add up quickly new, and most look minty.

That is smoking deal. I have nothing planned for the rest of my life that could justify it, so I will hold off. This is gonna move.

1. Various cordalette, and some slings. 2. A sling with various non-locking biners. 3. Nut tool with a retention bungie type clip. 4. A couple quickdraws with a bunch of locking biners. 5. 6 quickdraws on a sling 6. Either 6 more quickdraws on a sling, or a second picture of #5. 7. Some webbing suasages. 8. a set of tricams, with doubles in black and blue. The pricing I can't really help you with. It's used climbing gear. Most or all of it looks to be in great condition. The cordalette and webbing isn't worth much, not is the nut tool. You could look up the brankd of the gear and do a quick google search to get comps. All of this stuff it worth something to people building or filling out a rack. Not a ton of money, but there is definite stuff people would want. The locking biners and the quickdraw set stand out to me. tricams have their fans, but they aren't for everyone.

Let’s crowd source this…can community members chime in here!? Lee I’m sorry to hear about Ken, my condolences. That is a noble cause I’ll will do what I can to help. Im on my phone right now but I’ll chip in on the descriptions when I get home

People will know what this stuff is, just put obo if you’re not sure on the price. are you hanging it up as far as climbing? Moving on to a new hobby?

Repairs look good! You’ll want to list the size

But thanks for posting it here! Selling stuff here gets people on this site and more people = more Trip Reports, more all the good stuff. ill share this post on social media to get more eyes on it, this a nice rack!

I love this TR! Not only is it big baller stuff, the whole format, pictures and story telling, are why we work to keep the placing going. Well that and you’re joining a whole historical record of baller reports that are on the site, many from the folks commenting here. btw I had not heard the song referenced before so thanks for turning me on to that group. I thought it was referring to this at first! 🤣

!!! Nice!

Board doesn’t yet support heics. Can convert them to jpg. Note to self: check on status of this. edit: no plans for support. Only Safari renders them. Other browsers do not. So it’s not a forum thing, it’s Apple doing their thing. best I could do is have the board auto convert them to jpg on upload or something, but that isn’t happening anytime soon.

Not really desired to post up eBay auctions, we would prefer it being offered just to our community then if it doesn’t sell put it on eBay. This is just to prevent non-community members from spamming us with their auctions to drive up bidding. we want this to be a place where people interact meaningfully rather than as a spam dumping ground. since it’s already here you can leave it but that’s the message. I can see you’re not just a spam account.

This picture. Feels like it should be the in a Tin-tin like comic that features our heroes the professor and his refined but surly friend. Can any of you illustrate? I can write.

There is so little good rock out there, and even the stuff that is really isn’t that great. I’ve seen a couple rock outcrops in my travels but likely nothing really with it. I’ve heard tales of crappy rock for the desperate, like past lake crescent, not sure exactly sure but I think you might see something from the road

That indeed was it, though I had read one before that too.

I hate that he had to leave us but I’m glad to hear from everyone he touched. Thank you for sharing. I did not know him but instantly wish I had.
