I have used three bivy's before, and although the heaviest i have used, hands down the Wild Things bivy was the best. I been in it in the winter in canada at -37 C and in a thunderstorm back home. I have always been dry, and able to breathe fresh air due to the crescent shaped zipper

People have climbed the north face of Huntington..... really ???? wowzers.....

A few years ago a french team put up a route (free and aid,all rock until the snow/ice on top, if i remember correctly) on the south face of Dickey.(its in a AAJ somewhere) I second the East Buttress of Johnson, and the East Face of Denali, two great looking routes. Their are still crap loads of new route potential in the Ruth, some BIG, and some smaller day routes that may not be the biggest prize, but still worth climbing. Depending on the conditions their is a ice route on the northeast aspect of Barrill that my partner and I tried to get to last season and we were stopped by the huge cracks turning the corner. And their is a lot of potential on Bradley. Their are places for new routes and variations to established routes on every "wall" side of the mountain. Anybody ever climb a route on the North Face of Mt. Huntington? maybe a bit more of a death-wish route, but it would make the papers.

new to these forms and you guys & gals seen to know alot about gear and fabrics and cool shit. so, a few years ago a new manufacture called The Magic Line popped up making some neet stuff and then went away again as fast is it came. they made "system" clothing/packs/bags for climbers to use. I like the ideas, but at the time i couldnt look at an alpine wall without pooping myself, so, i stayed off the radar. Now i want to know where they are?
