Thought I would try these here first, before they go on craigslist. Salomon Crystal women's all mtn skis & Salomon Z10 Ti bindings. This is a ski/binding system, so the bindings are fully adjustable - they slide on a track that is permanently attached to the ski. This means you will not have to remount the bindings, simply lift tab (shown in photo) and readjust according to boot sole length. Ski length: 162 Ski dimensions: 115, 70, 103 Bindings: Salomon Z10 Ti. Both toe and heel piece are adjustable. track is premarked for sizing boot length. skis are similar to current Salomon Origin series. http://www.salomon.com/us/segment/all-mountain-ski.html Bought these for my wife but she has only skied them twice. The only significant wear is on the tail of one ski: two base scratches (shown in photo). they aren't deep and could easily be repaired if you cared. edges are still sharp. asking $500 OBO. PM with questions.

If, in your free time, deploying from helicopters in full battle gear is your thing... you need this! http://www.fastropedescender.com/frd.html asking $600 OBO. see link for details. PM with questions.

check out the size of Fred's "half ropes." what do you think, thumb-size diameter? pretty awesome, in any case.

Castle was supposed to be a warm up for us. It was my first time on rock since last summer, so a couple mellow multi pitch routes to start was the plan. Hence our frustration when we got caught in all the BS.

I'm glad we didn't head over to Castle Rock... that was my second possible idea for a multipitch. The route right of Jello Tower - could it be Winter Solstice (5.6, traverses under a bulge)? yeah, that's the one. at least we had an opportunity to get caught up on all the latest gossip while we waited... and a nice sun tan to boot!

we were the last party of two on the Buttress, saw you guys walking off. We did the same thing on the final pitch. my partner was about to coil the rope until I realized there was one more "roll" to climb. but it was a decent consolation prize after a horrible experience on Castle Rock that morning. not because of the climbing itself, but because we mananged to get caught in the middle of the worst Mountaineers fiasco I've ever seen. Not only did they take over all of the main routes, but members of their party were moving SO SLOW (on a two pitch route, mind you) that an observer in their group actually called SEARCH & RESCUE thinking someone was hurt!!! turns out they weren't, of course, just retarded. long story short, my partner and i waited on top of the first pitch of the route just right of Jello Tower (i forget the name) FOR AN HOUR so the last party of two could move off. finally, we just climbed past. personally, i love bringing new people into the activity & and I dont mind being patient while someone attempts their first trad lead. my beef is that while they're "learing the ropes," they're not being taught basic climbing etiquette at the same time. they apologized to us when we hit the ground, but I would much rather have someone on the rock helping these people (who were really clueless) get it done instead of shrugging their shoulders and saying sorry.

This is a lift ski setup, but I thought I'd list it here before it goes to Ebay. These Salomon women's skis are virtually brand new - they have only seen a few runs. I bought them for my girlfriend, but they turned out to be the wrong size. Salomonski.com The skis and included bindings are part of Salomon's Smartrak system. Both the toe and heel piece are FULLY ADJUSTABLE, capable of fitting any size boot without the need to remount the bindings. The skis come with a premounted binding plate that allows you to slide the toe and heel piece around with the easy flick of a lever (see photo). Just read the shell size on your boots and move the toe and heel to the appropriate calibration. Ski stats... Use: All-mountain Core: wood Length: 164cm Dimensions: 124,83,113 Bindings: Z10 Ti B90 Please PM me me an offer if interested. I'm thinking about $400-500. cost is more than double at a ski shop.

Inquiring for a friend. Would consider a variety of models, new or used.

So that's how it works... Trango has posted instructional videos for the Cinch, Squid, Big Bro, Alpine Equalizer, & B-52 on their website (Hosted by Mr. Malcolm Daly himself... what a rockstar!). trango.com/videos

Yep, I always seem to be pulling out the yellow too.

The direct offset lobe design of the 4 smaller Flexcams is licenced from Splitter. The idea is that you can hang off one lobe pair when placing in shallow pockets or pin scars (if you're into that kind of thing). Apparently Trango is going to "split" off the Splitter cams into their own category and have regular Flexcams down through the smaller sizes. Flexcams are certainly not the top cams on the market, but the point is that they are light and inexpensive - a good starter set or supplement to your existing rack.

SUN MOUNTAIN LODGE in winthrop. check the website. it's worth spending the $$.

PM Sent.

it's good to hear the issue is being addressed. sometimes it takes a while to get the kinks worked out on new gear, especially on one so complicated. chalk it up to good, old-fashioned grass roots product testing. cool that it was replaced in the mean time. cheers!

yes, i can see that the cam would have still held a fall. I haven't played with them much so I was trying to visualize what happened. do you think it was a matter of poor design, poor workmanship, what? In any case, it was certainly a pretty expensive "functional" failure. If that problem continues to show up in more units it could be a real issue. I mean, how did you guys feel about leaving a $90 cam somewhere in the North Cascades because the trigger wires came off?

I'm curious about the Linkcam failure. How, exactly, did the trigger wires fail? Any kind of cam failure is not a good thing and if the problem is systemic it could spell trouble for OP. Tell me more...

How old and in what kind of condition? any pics?

Has anyone recently summited baker proper? How does the glacier look with all the recent snow? For some reason I've been having visions of swimming up the mountain (actually drowning would be a more accurate description). Is it that bad do you think? And how close to the TH can you get? thanks

New or used, I don't care. Cheap is good. I'm usually about a sz. 44.
