I am a bit new to this side of climbing (as opposed to glacier) and was looking to buy a guide to Frenchman Coulee. What I found was that the "official" guide for FC was currently out of print, but that another printing was slated for February of this year. If it has been released, I have not been able to locate it. Anyone else out there know where it can be found or an anticipated publication date if it is not out there yet? I appreciate the help.

That's the main difference, of course - Technicolor. It also seems to have lost some weight over the years

After climbing Rainier last July, a friend sent me pictures his grandfather took on a climb there in 1928. Interesting to see the difference in Tahoma in just 80 years.

what daimeter / length of rope? these are new? what are you looking to get for them?

Although this thread deviated a bit to Paris Hilton... for any of you that might be interested, the authors of "The True Patriot" are holding a reception and discussion at Seattle's Town Hall on March 20. I have read some fantastic comments here that would surely be a welcome addition to the discussion next week. From the invite... "There’s a reception/party which begins at 6:30 followed by the discussion at 7:30. Please come and cheer and jeer. We look forward to a fascinating and dynamic discussion made even more relevant by the evolving electoral season." When: Thursday March 20 Where: Town Hall 119 8th Avenue, Seattle

This is good gear, but its not doing anybody any good in my closet. Make me an offer...reasonable, of course.

Thanks Chad, That WAS very helpful. The Charmoz are super light and really comfortable, but I don't want to buy another pair of boots next year, or the year after. Plus, with the Triolet, if I get lost in the snow, I can throw my feet up in the air and someone is sure to see the bright orange glow on snow. Thanks again!

How do these compare with the lighter, more Trango-like Scarpa Charmoz? Has anyone used both? I am debating between the two. Fit is about the same but wonder if the extra beef is worth it or if it takes its toll on long approaches. Currently not doing anything too technical, but would like to get there.

OR GLoves SOLD.. apparently I take paypal, who knew?

SOLD - Crampons, harness, Jansport bag and figure 8
