  1. They auto-install. You just visualize the placement and it happens...
  2. I couldn't say if they are B's or not but they should have been ;o) 5 minutes with a file and they were all good!
  3. I have a pair of Camp axes. They are straight shaft though. Looks like the same head. Think I paid ~$45 each on SAC for them. Anyway The heads have some nasty casting burs that I cleaned up with a file. The adze isn't very sharp either. For the price I can't complain though.
  4. Thanks for the link.
  5. Perhaps I mis-spoke.:crazy:That photo is the left chute to the climbers right of HB. The right hand chute was quite vertical for ~20+ feet. We summited via West Crater Rim and descended that chute in the photo.
  6. We summited about 10-10:15am. We were stuffing our faces at the brew pub by 2:15
  7. Here's what the old chute looked like today. The gates were much more vertical. Edit for typo..
  8. I picked up a OP #2 at REI with 20% off it wasn't much more and I had to burn up my dividend anyway...
  9. I have a Gamma MX and really like it. It's my first softshell so I don't have much to compare it to though...
  10. I'd be game for either, been up both but have no transpo ATM. Will glady pay for gas though. I'm on the west side.
  11. Yeah, what he said. I've summited Jeff several times.

    Crash

    I ride 100 miles per week and have done so for 3 years now. I haven't been hit but I have had some close calls. The two things that cause problems IMO are cars making a right turns across the bike lane or path of a cyclist and oncoming traffic doing the same with left turns. Once a car passes you they quickly forget you were there assuming they saw you in the first place. I had a car full of kids huck a Venti Starschmucks at me one time. Fortunately it missed and exploded on the ground next to me. I chased the bastards down but they ran a light to get away. Another time I got nailed right in the ass by one of those plastic big gulp cups. That hurt like hell! So in my experience projectiles are more dangerous than cars... Sorry to hear about your accident Roger.
  13. Channel 6 better get their team ready...
  14. Not to mention it broadcasts that lovely aroma around the room.. I bike commute every day, I might have to look into one of these...
  15. Knocked it down to 91%...
  16. For Toyota off road stuff check out http://allprooffroad.com/ Also Pirate4x4.com The VW TDi will get nearly 50mpg. Then make your own bio-diesel for less than a buck and gallon. Most newer diesels have particulate filters in the exhaust and are pretty clean in general. With bio-diesel you just give off burrito fumes...
  17. Redpoint hard 5.10 climbs
  18. Sounds great, I PM you before I read this.. LOL
  19. Do I know Scott?!? The real question is who doesn't....? FWIW I heard they aren't offering the discount on non Gore based Arcteryx stuff. So they discounted my Gamma on accident.
  20. PM Sent
  21. I was in there Saturday and picked up a Gamma MX and Theta LP set for 20% off. The sale acutally starts today but I'm not sure what all it covers but I know Arcterxy for sure.
  22. Exactly what I was thinking. I haven't done any ice climbing yet so my main interest is a winter mountaineering boot that I can flounder on some ice with for now
  23. I just ordered a set of the Asolo AFS Evos. REI doesn't stock them so I hope they are the right size... If they do not fit I'll likely get the Koflachs with Intuitions.
  24. I thoroughly enjoyed that story!
