Petzl Hirundos. Used to only buy adjustable leg loop harnesses but no more. It's great for sport and doesn't absorb much water.

BUMP!

Well, the big plus in traveling light in Nepal is you don't have to worry about either paying to have your stuff held/watched, paying to get it flown in (i.e. you could bring other comfort or trekking items within your luggage limits) and/or worry about having it stolen. BUT. If you have a good secure base of operations..... You could bring the stuff and maybe use it and you might also be able to sell the stuff.

Yeah winter has been pretty bad here snow-wise, "freshies" was about 3"! So if that keeps up that means I have a chance.... But it was fun. I get to go neat places bc-wise but I am poor and ski a poor man's hill--The KING!!!!!

True nuff! Just bring a pocket full of business cards when you take every apres ski or ice climb opportunity you can. It's not pointless recreation followed by alcohol--it's networking! FINALLY getting more of the white stuff here.

Well lately this board is great for one thing at least: racking up posts. I'm up over 820! Going skiing now, later all!

Hey while I'm confusing threads, can we re-start the Climb Denali for Christ thread here when we hit 10 pages? Or would a Mounties thread be more Marmot-appropriate? Just sayin'

Oh man, I'm wrong, got a little thread confusion going on!

Or we could both be right... I tend to think this is the sine qua non of spray. And you would be right. Or wrong... Just hopefully NOT in the bottom of a crevasse!

Only one? You both could be wrong.....

GIGO?

Naw, just take up top rope bouldering.

I dunno, think wearing it might make me look old, slow & fat..........

Probably, but it would be totally shot after one fall. Then what, smart guy? Hey ChoadaB, don't despair, sounds like a Chinese made climbing rope, anyone know when BD's new line of ropes is coming out?

Kinda seems like Bubbles was a good boy, he aimed low.......

You learn that in juvie lock up? Just sayin'

This thread is a good example of the difference between opinion and experience. Just sayin'

Ha! Love the face tatoo zapped off!

What length? If you are going to use a ski binding and boots longer is better, if a silvretta binding probably midlength.

Did you forget the stream of beta or are you too addled and uninvolved for that?

Well at least the pug still has all his teeth!

Hey! Does this thread (and the shovel one) best belong in the gear critic? Just sayin'

Er, sorry I'm late boss, had to make coffee. I still think she looks like a evangelicapolitica Joan Rivers.

Why not look into joint base Lewis-McChord? Might be folks who can tell you about PRT's etc., seems like they have expertise in far more difficult international community development situations than you might find in the private sector.
