F@#K! Non of the cool stuff ever comes to Spokane

I dont plan on doing routes that consider a ton of hammering, but I would like to have a few pitons to bail off of or use in an anchor. What would make a good assortment for the cascades? Also, what is a good number of ice screws for a begginer to have and of what sizes. These would go to montana, canada, and here in the cascades as well. Thanks

what are your ideas about alpine climbing in the cascades with them. Seems like it is a good way to double up on cams and save weight. Not to mention cheaper to bail off of if the need comes up. And what are the pros and cons of each brand

I am starting to get into alpine routes now. I'm still pretty new, and looking to lead things under 5.9 for a while, however i will follow just about anything. My schedule allows for four days off in a row, which is great for climbing just about any where. if your interested end me a PM.

A few months old, used a handful of times and still in great condition. It is gray and black, size M/L. I am asking $70 (shipping is included). Sorry no pic's I have problems posting them.

GREAT ADVICE! I have thought about doign the aiding thing, but just have not had "the time to waste" but now that summer is here, i have tons of time. Thanks again to you all.

So a little over a year ago i fell and had gear ripp and was pretty messed up (ya im the tool from spokane...now we can move on past that part). Im just now getting over my fear falling again (on bolts) how can i push my mind into being comfortable on gear. I went to the Royal columns at Tieton and had to down climb a (the book says dirty) 5.7 around a roof. I need advice, I know what "good gear" is ( to bad i had to learn the hard way) But I can not get myself to fall on it. HELP!

thats what i was planning on doing, is going to one are, im just wondering mhat other options i have.

my 21st is in August and i have 4-5 days for a trip. I need ideas. I looking for some mellow trad (totally hapy with anything in the 5.5-5.9 range) or lots of sport in the 10-12b/c range. on the list now is -going to WA Pass/Mazama -Lake Louise -blodget canyon, MT -city of rocks? -smith (to hot?) thanks

Im looking for good comprehensive guide books (in english) to the following... Patagonia All over Alaska (mainly Ruth Gorge) Bugaboos Potrero Chico Thanks for the help

any one know how the SW couloir is right now?

Awesome video! It is great to see some logistics in Alaskan climbing. One day I will have the time, money, and skills to play with the big boys too. GREAT WORK!

Being back in school made me realize I can't afford to buy the freze dried/ dehydrated meals all the time now. However I'm tired of taking just powdered mashed potatos and oatmeal. What kinds offiod are you guys taking? I use the reactor stove so prefer to take "just add water" meals. I also have a vaccum sealer. Also I'm looking for a tag line. I am currently using the Edelwies laser 9.6x 60m. I'm looking for a lite line I can keep in my pack until it's time to rappel or maybe use for some lite hauls.

So I use the La Sportiva Miura VS for sport and bouldering. I'm looking into a trad shoe I'm thiking maybe the katana lace up or the TC pro ( how do these climb.) Any suggestions

I totally agree they are unsafe,and I would definatelly stay away as much as possible. However, I am sure there will be some times when it is the only way up. Thanks Dane. Any other suggestions.

My girlfriend is looking for a double boot. Trying to stay away from plastcs, but I have not seen any specifically for women. Does she just need to try on some spantiks or baruntse or am I just not looking hard enough?

What is the proper way to tell if it is safe to mess with then how do you go about tunneling thru or climbing over it?

no foot print

I can get some but I'm not sure how to upload them here. Ican send it to your email?
