Caleb

I am looking for something similar to the Dana bomb pack of 3-4 years ago. needs to have 2700 of more cubic inches, able to carry skis well, and have reliable tool attachments caleb

need the best, dont want to pay full price. only in good condition please

seems like real similar boots. whos got em and whos got a opinion (i assume all of you)? i am epecially interested in the Cumbre, i have tested the Nepals before. sweet boots. felt like comfy rock shoes

the grivel FREE leash is a great simple leash. very easy in and out without unclipping.

i did the N ridge 4 of july and that approach was clear up to 5000 with very infrequent snow to 6400. hope this helps

if the hole is in the toe or another place that does not flex much fiberglass and epoxy work very well. it remains fairly flexible and the epoxy sticks well to rough out leather

Climb: Mt jefferson-Jefferson Park glacier to N. Ridge Date of Climb: 7/2/2005 Trip Report: We hiked it to the mountain on saturday starting at 11 from the parking area. the hike in was gorgeous with great views of the west and north faces.[] we took a wrong turn on the PCT and headed south twoards Russel creek. We realized our error when we hit the creek and decided to simply head stright up the moraine's side rather then go back. Once we hit the ridge of the moraine we hiked a bit and found a great camp spot[]. We planned on waking up at 12 and staring out from camp at 1. we both slept fitfuly but stayed on schedual. we got to the glaicer at about 2. the snow was in excellent conditions and it was cold and clear. we decided to head up the glaicer to the notch in the north ridge because the bergshrung looked inmpassable. the ridge was about 60-70 degrees but the snow was not very solid, lots of hoar. we topped out on a small ridge just under the minor summit of Jefferson. []The pinnicle was steep snow with just a bit of rock poking through. Not wanting to epic just for the junk sumit we decided to descend our route which went quickly. The day was just starting to warm up and it looked promising. On the way down the rock fall was absurd. We both got bonked a few times on the helmet (glad we brought those). walking down the glaicer was hell on the knees but it was in the shade still so excellent cramponing. All in all a great two days to be out and having an adventure. On the way down we saw that the shrund is still just barely passable on the high west side[] Caleb and Alexis Gear Notes: Gear taken - 2 pickets, axe apiece, crampons, hexes, nuts, screw, rope Gear used - pickets, axes, crampons, rope. A scond tool would have been nice for the N. ridge Approach Notes: The trail and the moraines were totally clear.

anyone know of climging in the Hart mountain antelope wildlife refuge area east of winnemucca? the area sounds beautiful and secluded.
