Good job.. super jelly- I tried this route about a month ago, and the trip fell apart on me. Did you see nothing break off the upper Kautz? I watched a pretty good size piece come off, when I was up there. I'm surprised it's still climbable, if sub-optimally

+1 I have had that pack for 3 years and LOVE it! Super durable, super light What's your typical load/route with that pack?

I'm sure this shit was gone in the first 14 seconds. --- I'll also add that it's refreshing and inspiring to see somebody selling quality used gear for cheep, like the days of yore..

Howdy Looking for a fast pack that climbs well. Maximum load weight 30lbs, generally closer to 20. Needs two tool loops and compression straps on at least one side... bonus for gear loops and helmet-head clearance. Some of the packs I've been looking at - MH Summit Rocket 40 Golite Jam 35 BD Speed 40 BD Epic 45 Thoughts/experiences on these? Others to look at? Also extremely interested in peoples' experiences with un-framed packs Thanks -Ben

Nope. Did anyone ever bother explaining the "Y" to the media?

I usually dont... but sometimes it feels like it'll help ward off others from making potentially better offers. do you have your phone or what? Use the 707 number... I've pretty much abandoned the 410 number

I'm looking for something to climb this weekend, but it'd have to be a solid route- what you looking at?

I've not yet climbed in the L, so I don't know what the crag culture is like up there.. but I put a couple very faint Xs on a couple loose holds on I-Rock to warn my slightly uncomfortable follower a couple weekends ago.. Does that make me a hero? There's an application for everything... some people like to douche it up and take things too far, but it doesn't make a given practice completely stupid

Where are you located?

Cant believe nobody bought this...

Fee?

Lemme guess...is it a Suunto? Yes, it is

Actually... that's bullshit... I did have to hike up about 100' of one of the terminal fingers of the glacier. It was chopped up, but still totally passable. May 5 extra minutes spent navigating big cracks. Forgot that lil detail --- So the chute was pretty solid, eh?? I've been sort of watching the temp up there- didn't think it'd been cold enough to solidify yet. Did you see anything falling off? --- Sheeiate... Freezing level's supposed to dip under 10,000' tomorrow night. Maybe it's time for round 2...

I crossed under the glacier and went straight up the ramp at 6,300'. I may have hopped off the Paradise trail lower than the standard route, but I did follow a trail most of the way down into the canyon. Between leaving the Paradise trail and stepping foot on the Wilson, I tread maybe a total of 30' of Nisqually Glacier. A couple sketchy moat crossings, but other than that, all dirt/mud/scree between Paradise trail and the Wilson.

Rescue will almost never come till morning anyway.

What, specifically, was the reason behind activating the beacon?

What's a rough average time o' year for Cloud Cap closing?

I'll take it.. PM inbound

What's that insignia?

Did you have another soloist behind you on Hood? EDIT - Yep... I was the dude behind you on die Nordwand Weird, small community, this NW scene is.

They sold, m'fraid. Good looking out, though.

Howdy Anybody happen to have a set of really skinny halfs being neglected in the rope tote? Looking for 60m and hoping to stay under 48gpm... and in GOOD condition, of course. Half/twin is obviously cool, but not looking for twins right now. Thanks -Ben

douche dorée.
