Looking for a good 4 season tent, I discovered a large tear in the rainfly of my current one when I got it out this weekend.I have a trip coming up soon,could use some help. I would like to not spend more than $200.

I agree completely with you Julian, I've had a Sub-Alpine 2 for almost seven years and it is still going strong, REI should bring it back for sure.

WOW! That is awesome!

Newbie to mt adams looking for a partner for labor day weekend.

I will be taking the South side,My plan was trekking poles and micro spikes.Thanks for the advice,I will definetly be watching the conditions,what about the cheap(surplus)crampons, any opinions,I don't want to waste money or risk my life on something that will fail.

I've been backpacking for many years,but am new to mountain climbing.I'm planning on climbing Mt.Adams in Sept. was wondering if crampons are necessary or if micro spikes would work.Also if anyone has an opinion on military surplus crampons,I've noticed they're considerably cheaper(around $20) but, in my experiance one usually gets what they pay for.

Would you take $60 for the crampons?
