I dont know much about the Chernobyl but I have the icesac and love it. Somewhat lightweight, removable lid, all the features needed. The only downside is it doesnt carry heavy loads over about 35 lbs very well but you shouldn't ever carry that much anyway.
Is there anything wrong with spray painting carabiners, nuts, hexes, or cams so you can keep them seperate from your partners? Or any tips for doing this. thanks
there is no real trailhead. You start out hiking up a dry creek bed. and when looking at the creek bed from the road make sure you head left up it. About 5-10 minutes up it there will be a cairn on the right which is where the actual trail starts.
anyone wanna go climbing next week. anything alpine/trad. I can lead 5.8 and follow 5.9-5.10. Im up for anything 1 to 5 days. I have a car. PM me with a name and number and a climing idea.
sweet pictures! how long are you on the mountain for after the approach trail? And is there some scrambling at the top? Were all the crevases open, meaning would it be easy to travel unroped?
I am hoping to climb beckey route on liberty bell and maybe other routes around there like one of the early winter spires. Will the snow be gone by June 15ish to do this. Also what do you need for a rack for beckey route on liberty bell. Any info is well appreciated. Thanks
