Hoody still for sale... $65 in Seattle, or $70 plus shipping elsewhere.

Marko - size is men's medium. I've got a potential sale lined up but if it falls through I'll pm you or bump the post next week.
-
Bump - hoody still available. I'll take $65 for pickup in Seattle.

Men's medium half zip Ibex "Shak" Hoody. Blue w/ grey trim. Dense-knit Merino wool, thumb loops and zippered chest pocket. Great shape, just a little wear on the thumb loops. Retails $160, asking $75. Located in Seattle.

Inspiring pics, but I've gotta admit I'm not ready for summer to be over!
How do you like your Fusions? Did you get a chance to compare them to Nomics? Curious if the spike noticeably changes your swing...
-
Where are you located? If in/near Seattle, I'll take it all.

I'd highly recommend Dr. Mankey for surgery if it comes to that. I was referred to him by a former head nurse at Swedish when I ruptured an achilles tendon two years ago. He's fairly no-nonsense; he cut to the chase about what needed to be done and did a great job w/ the surgery. Good luck!

Perfect condition - tent used two nights on snow, groundsheet (bought separately) never used. $450. I'm in Seattle...

Starter setup for a small child - maybe 3-4 yrs old? Includes:
Skis (31 inches) with bindings mounted for smaller of the included boots
Mini boots (205mm/16.5 mondo/US Youth 9.5)
Next size boots (223cm/18.5 mondo/US Youth 11.5)
Poles (31 inches)
-
K2 Totally Piste skis (185 length, 99/65/88 width), Garmont two buckle plastic boots (size 27 mondo, ~9 US), plus skins. Nothing fancy here, but it will get someone largely set up for tele.

Awesome - thanks for the ski stoke!!! Brought back great memories from a May ski on the CD a few years back. I don't think I could bring myself to ride the skis over rocks like that, though - I cringed just watching it...

Wow, nice job going back for more after the first epic. I read your original TR of misery and woe when prepping for an attempt at the NF back in July (we got shut down by weather). There can't be more than 10-15 folks who can claim to have been on top of that beast TWICE - congrats!!
-
Awesome - thanks Darrin! There's a great shot of the crux pitch in the Layton/Ivan TR from a while back...but knowing where to expect it helps a lot.

I'm lining up a go at the Bertulis/Davis route this weekend and was hoping the McClane - Alpine Select guide I ordered would arrive in time... I gather it has a bit more route beta than Beckey's CAG. Unfortunately I just found out the McClane guide is on backorder so I won't see it til we're done w/ the climb.
If anyone's got Alpine Select and is willing to send me a scan of the route Beta I'd be super grateful. I'm not trying to dog McClane out of a sale (I've already pd for the guide, and besides I'm a climbing guide ho!). I just need any beta I can get!

Thanks!

Nice job, EO - I was wondering what you've been up to lately! I need to get out and test the achilles on the NEB or NF . . .
-
I happened to be getting ready to climb at the rock when Porter took his fall, and I don't think I'll view Coach's Crack (the top of which he fell from) quite the same again. It wasn't a pretty sight, but Porter was hangin' in there solid despite what, based on the crook in his lower right leg, must've been terrible pain. Best wishes for a speedy recovery!
-
No sweat, Rob. I'll hijack your thread since the title pretty well covers it. Anyone want to climb at index tomorrow morning - maybe leave Seattle around 8? I'll check back in another hour or so, but I figure I'm stuck w/ UW rock at this point . . .
-
Still need a partner for a short day at Index tomorrow? My usual partners are all busy with other things, so if you're interested in hitting Index in the morning through mid-aft., shoot me a pm.

BUMP - does anyone have more recent info on the amount of snow in the Enchantments? I'd like to give a late season run at Serpentine Arete, but if there's a lot of snow on route it could quickly turn into an epic. The weekend weather window is tempting, though. Any info would be much appreciated!
-
Thanks for the pics! The recent TR assault is great - been thinking about this one for Sept. If you'd left the trailhead at the a$$ crack of dawn (say 4-5am) on day one, would it have been feasible to hit Dorado Needle - SW Butt that day, then do EMS - SW Face on day two? It'd be a couple long days, for sure - but what a weekend!
-
Thanks!! I'd picked up an old 4.5 for cheap a while back, can't believe I lucked out a second time . . .

Anyone have hammerless aid cleaning tricks to offer? From the little clean aid bumbling I've done, I found cleaning gear to be a bit of a pain since every piece gets at least body weight on it. . . TIA!

Hey Cook, if you're ever looking for more suckers to DT at X38 on a weekend (especially mornings), I'd love to join ya'!
