Bump with price drop, now asking $100

Sold

Regular, 32” as measured

Found the model/year info on the tag, added to original post and lowered price a bit. This is a discontinued model. I didn’t realize I bought them that long ago, so I lowered the price a bit.

Sold

Lightly used Arc’teryx Alpha AR 35 pack, light grey color. No rips or tears, clean in and out. Asking $100 for local sale (Wenatchee area) or $120 shipped (due to large size). I use PayPal unless meeting up locally.

Like-new Outdoor Research Mentor Goretex Pro full-zip shell pants, black, Men’s size large. Includes elastic suspenders. *Edit: found the model name on the tag, also appears these are a Fall 2014 model. If I remember correctly, I purchased these on clearance (new) the following year. Asking $80 for local sale (Wenatchee area) or $95 shipped. I use PayPal unless meeting up locally.

Very lightly worn (only a couple outings actually) Arc’teryx Psiphon FL Hoody, Men’s large, in a nice high-visibility yellow color. This color really pops in photos! This is a discontinued jacket, but there are some online reviews out there that describe it. Basically, it’s a hybrid garment consisting of two different soft shell fabrics, a heavier and more durable fabric on shoulder yoke and arms, then a light and breathable fabric on the main body. Excellent hood and overall fit/cut for alpine climbing. This jacket also has the Arc’teryx Hemlock feature, which are little foam inserts in the bottom hem that help keep the jacket tucked under your harness. This thing was money for relatively dry conditions ice and alpine climbing. Asking $100 for local sale (Wenatchee area) or $115 shipped. I use PayPal for payment unless meeting up.

Only a few BD cams remaining, and the gear sling

Any takers on the Sabretooths before I take them to Second Ascent?

Used La Sportiva Batura Evo GTX ice boots for sale, size 47. I bought these at least 6-7 years ago I think but have actually only climbed in them fewer seasons than that. They are still in fantastic shape with tons of life left. No holes, no punctures, no tears, no defects other than superficial scuffs and wear associated with normal use. Superfeet winter insoles included. Asking $250 OBO, shipping will be $20 flat rate on top of that if you need it. I'm located in Wenatchee, WA.

ALL SOLD!

SOLD Pair of used Petzl Nomics for sale, asking $400. Includes original tags, wrenches and spacers for heads, installed pick weights and hammers, and two sets of pick covers. The rubber wrap was installed by me and is in pretty good shape, just now starting to split near the top. Picks are sharp and ready to climb right now, also with plenty of meat left for resharpening. I am in Wenatchee and can meet up within a reasonable distance. Also willing to ship. Cash if meeting up and PayPal if you need me to ship.

Three pairs of used crampons I am getting rid of. Not climbing anymore and other interests in life are now consuming my time and treasure. Just looking to get this gear to the next eager user at great price. I am in Wenatchee and can meet within a reasonable distance, or I can ship at your expense (if you need shipping we will come up with a reasonable flat rate). Cash if meeting up, PayPal if I'm shipping it. [BD Cyborgs sold] [BD Sabretooths sold] Includes the pictured BD crampon bag and associated tools/front point spacers to convert to mono points. These are well-used but still have plenty of meat on the points for continued sharpening and sending. BD Sabretooth semi-auto crampons= $40 [Stubai crampons sold]

***All Sold*** Finally came to the realization I'm not a climber anymore, as life interests have taken me other directions. Selling off my rack, as follows: all items are used but in good shape and have lots of safe and useful life left. If I were still climbing, I would be using this stuff. The big caveat is the slings on the cams: these cams all had news slings sewn on by BD and Metolius back in 2013, so I highly recommend you get them re-slung again prior to use, simply due to the elapsed time. They have only been used a couple times on the new slings and stored indoors properly since then though. Prices firm, unless you guys think I'm way off base on what I'm asking. Just trying to move this stuff to the next eager user and recoup a little cash, that's all. I am located in Wenatchee and could meet within a reasonable distance for the sale, otherwise I can ship (cost to ship will vary and I will work that out with you individually if needed). Cash if meeting up, PayPal if shipping needed. Cams: [BD #4, #3, newer #1 sold] BD Camalot #2 (2 available), #3= $30 each BD Camalot (old 1st Gen) #1 & #0.75= $15 each BD Camalot #0.3= $40 (this is the newest of the whole lot, barely used. Not the latest Z4 but whatever they were calling them before that...) [Metolius TCUs sold] [Metolius MasterCams sold] [Nuts sold] Gear sling: Metolius= $10 [Carabiners all sold]

I deal with this exact issue as well. I have found the boot is not much of a factor, unless you are grossly over-insulated for the objective or conditions. For reference, I wear Batura Evos for all my ice and winter stuff now. Yes, they are on the warm side, but I have had good results with the below practices: Anti-perspirant on the feet is a great trick. My go-to is Mitchum Gel Unscented: powerful active ingredients, easy to apply to feet, dries reasonably fast. Just be careful when packing, as it can ooze from the tube under certain temps/orientations. Double bag. I have tried various combos of liner socks, vapor barriers, etc. Just results in more sweating or more sweaty socks to pack out. I stick to one pair of mid-to-heavy weight, high quality wool sock (Darn Tough or Smartwool). I don't do much mountaineering anymore, so I am mostly dealing with this on all-day ice climbing outings. My practice is to apply anti-perspirant in the AM and change into dry socks after the approach.
