If you are willing to spend the money I would look at the Big Agnes Three Wire Bivy, I know that is what I am currently persuing for a new Bivy http://www.rei.com/product/756709

thanks Loren

how much to ship the gloves? I think they would fit in a standard envelope do you take paypal?

yeah but it has their symbol on it

craig, I cant go until after 7 tonight but if you are still feeling the need I could meet you at the coulle after for some night climbing. Andrew

I think the t1 or the x3 would work nicely STAY AWAY FROM POLAR they suck I broke 2 with my over zelous persperation. buy SUUNTO man

maybe some strong split rings or some industrial fishing hardwear would work It might look ghetto but it would work

is that what you were looking for?

The US outdoor store of PDX has the kit http://www.usoutdoorstore.com/outlet/petzl-charlet-strap-kit-with-side-adjustment.html this is a kit to replace all of the straps on the crampons I have a pair of those and looked into it for plastic boots (the straps were not long enough)

I know, but I think that the others will still be usefull in varying lite conditions

I have a POLARIZED pair of smith slider style sunglasses that I use on my road bike. Three lenses: Clear, Amber and dark. I think that I will start using these in all but the brightese of summer snow conditions. Also, I burned my eyes when I was about 12 and they are still sensiative to light, so we will see how this goes.

so do you think that changeable sunglasses would be ok on low level terain in the winter? eg. the pass because there was a shit-ton of snow this last weekend

I was interested at what altitude (or prolonged exposture period) people stoped using sunglasses and started using regular sunglasses. The reason I am asking is that I had an AVY class this weekend on snoqualmie pass and all of the ski partolers and some of my class mates just wore changeable lense sunglasses. I wore my dorky glaicer glasses. I asked one of the guys when to stop wearing sunglasses and he said that at below 10K feet that normal sunglasses were ok because the sunlight is less intense. thoughts?

if only the size was increased:(
