cant go wrong with the Farvre

awesome stoke! thanks man

Thanks Dane. Superb clarification. Excited to see what will be offered through Coldthistle

nice find with the weather window!

Dan...kickass TR as always!

a second thanks for the update

no experience with that Lowa boot but I'm sure it will perform well if it fits well. I'm in the same boat with narrow/low volume feet. Trangos with the orange Superfeet work well for me and the Silver Evo Extreme performs well and is warm enough for 95%+ of what I'll do and it is comfortable to hike in. Did the slog up the DC on Rainier when the Paradise trails were all pavement with no comfort issues. The Nepal fits well too, especially in the heel. Locks down quite nice. That and it has a customizable tongue to better improve the fit. It's just shy of a pound heavier per pair.

brilliant wayne! and sweet vid! quite a bit fatter than nov...

atta girl V!!

not only does he solo the route but performs an impromptu rescue/assist... from BD's site: now that's badass!!

well done steph...thanks for sharing!

ahh...you're so modest V...i'm still working on the complex i have from a girl outclimbing me! especially the times i'm cleaning the route and thinking to myself "wtf?! who in their right mind would climb this on the pointy end?!" it's the ballveries... great to find such awesome people to partner with from just good 'ol cc.com!

my experience is by no means as extensive as John's or Wayne's but solid footwork, proper lock-off positions and not death-gripping your tools will sway the pump...that and just relaxing, breathing in those stressful sections. Training when not on the ice will help keep what stamina and strength you've gained I've top-roped climbing with a mountaineering axe and no leash. That sucked. But the pinky rests on the new leashless take quite the load off your need to grip. I will second Alex's notion to look at the last generation BD Vipers and add a Fang if they don't already have one. Best of both worlds and you can find them fairly inexpensive.

well done KK! looks like a helluva day out

+1

looks sa'weet! bummer about the knee...

good getting out V! need more ice soon...

how are things looking as of recent Dane?
