  6. yes, they are the same model as those on s and c. check out the naxo website if you are not familiar with them or their history. they are size "small", so the max. boot length is 300mm.
  7. 2nd gen. they are small - i bought them for my wife, who wears a size 8 running shoe.
  8. Naxo NX01 - Brand new, still in box any questions?
  9. it all goes and i'm sure that there are many variations for the start. we started well left of your start - up a 70-75 deg. slab with a crack in it. it worked well and puts you up on the rib earlier. as i remember, jim's book showed the route starting even farther left than our start. also, the best pitch on the route is to go direct to the summit in lieu of walking left up the choss gully and then following the ridge up.
  10. dave, i'm w/fairweather on this one. wta has never done a thing to support mt biking or share the trails with anyone. the middle fork trail is no exception. their way or the highway. speaking of highways - it seems as though they are trying to turn many of the trails into highways.
  11. it won't be real history unless you include skinner saying, "that's got to be the hardest route in WA" and then Hampson saying, "no, that's the hardest route in WA" (while pointing to the Norwegian Butt.).
  12. i have 2 60m 8.5mm ropes in excellent condition - i can't remember if they are pmi or mammut. i have never fallen on them. 90.00 for both. i also have a black 60m static line that is in excellent condition. 60.00
  13. i didn't see the word "double" in that article (did i miss it)? i did see - "the only way to save the park is to ban snowmobiles" - that's funny! why aren't they arguing against automobiles and people in the summer? have you seen that place in the summer? - it's like a downtown circus. the sleds are using the same roads. you could allow 100 times as many sleds in there in the winter and it wouldn't come close to the summer impact. aren't they requiring the sleds to transition to 4 strokes - didn't see that in the article. you're for banning cars in the valley too, right? i don't own a sled or believe they should be allowed in the parks, but i do like to read both sides of the story and make just decisions. this includes the history, as well as the plan to decrease the #'s from previous years .....
  14. Aliens - blue, yellow, green - like new 30.00 each Technical Friends - #1, #2 - like new 20.00 each All Sold!
  15. i assume you are doing the east ridge or south face? you can rap the west ridge with a single rope. a 60m is nice, but you shouldn't have a problem downclimbing short sections - as many have descended with a 50m rope. i've descended the west ridge with 1 rope - works fine but not a route worth climbing up (upper part is cool though). i've also rapped the west side of the south face with 2 ropes after doing the s. face - might be able to get by with one, but you will have to build a station (we built some pretty good stations last year). you can downclimb alot of the lower part. other than the 2 rope weight, the south face descent is nice because you leave all of your crap at the base. even if you do the s face descent, you are probably going to need shoes, spikes, or an ax to get to the east ridge. it's pretty easy to climb the east ridge with this though because the climbing is moderate - 1 5.9 pitch. other stuff - keep you options open - you can probably get to the s face pretty easy - it might be harder to get to the east ridge (crevasses). also, if you do descend the west ridge, there may be a big crevasse near the base that you have to run and literally fly over (the upper side is higher so it goes). worst case you have to walk west a ways to skirt it - could add 30 minutes.
