Summit Climb: I'm looking for personal knowledge, experiences, or what you may have heard or know about the company Summit Climb. I see there trips are about half price of that of other International Climbing companies and when I ask why I was told "because others simply profit too much". So I'm reaching out to all of you to see what you may be able to enlighten me. Feel free to send me a pm or email to allen(at)livinginswflorida(dot)com.

I just returned from Rainier and used my Hilli Kaitum 3GT http://www.hilleberg.com/home/products/kaitum/kaitum3gt.php. Out of our group of 10 or so tents this tent was the envy. When the weather was bad, and rain on the lower mountain and the Bibles, BD's, and MH's had water in them, all our gear was totally dry with more than amble room for a complete dug in kitchen in one end. When two tents blew away in 70+mph winds on the upper mountain mine had no problem. One minute, and one step, pitch of both the inner and the outer at the same time and then if you want to, or need to sleep 5 or more, just use the ground sheet (which covers the entire outer footprint vestibules and all, and you can accommodate I would estimate 8-10 or a group shelter.

Would like under 16oz, 12 would be better and I too like pit zips as I generate a lot of heat. Looking at Alpha LT ( in GORE) and Rab at the moment. I thought the Latok Alpine had them?

Your Experience w/Mont Bell UL SS Down Hugger Bags
ASmith replied to ASmith's topic in The Gear Critic
I know the new UL SS versions the regular six is now 6' now instead of the previous 5'-10" model so a regular fits up to 6' like most manufactures. I looking at a UL SS #1 as compared to my FF Swift & Swallow and it has so much more room but it seems like the loft in the baffles are thin as I can see thru the bag, so Im questioning the temp rating. -
Looking for actual experiences, performance, thoughts and where-with-all regarding these bags.

I have and use two different Polars and would highly recommend them. They replace the batt for free and have been always been great to work with. My son races pro MX and we have used Polar HRM for over 15 years.

Just make sure that if you buy a Mchale yo get the better four bolt version. That is four bolts holding the waist belt to the pack. See info on Dan's site under buying used packs.

I too have had several friends summit the big E with both the Oly Mons and the Millet however no one really has much input on the other brand to compare and I can't find anyone who stocks both. I know the soles on the Oly Mons are butter and wear fast, are soft and maybe questionable with a step in crampon, but I'm also wondering about the usage of the inner out of the outer as a tent bootie and how they hold up. There has to be someone who has used both or has compared both first hand.

The Hillaburg's are the best. Love my Katium #GT. Best tent(s) we have ever had.

Last year I built an air compressor for the kids program at Sea Camp so they could fill their own tanks and save money but this year...... I'm in the market for some climbing wall holds for a wall that we are building for a wall project for a contribution for kids, more specially families of abused and at risk youth kids. If you have, or know anyone who does have some holds that they would like to sell, or that would like to get ride of some, the more the better, I would be happy to take them off your hands. I am working on a tight budget as I'm financing the entire project and I'm hoping you can help. Thanks for the consideration. I can be reached at Allen@livinginswflorida.com
