  1. Essentially brand new: carried twice on Rainier and once on Baker, fortunate to have bluebird days so these stayed in my pack. Baffle zip flap keeps super warm, and two-way zip super handy. Detachable hood adds versatility on mountain. Love this jacket but moving in near future so won’t need this weight but also don’t need to sell so pretty solid on price. Unlikely you’ll need it but FF warranty is legit. Stored in large open bag so hasn't been compressed short of the three trips. Not only USA made, Seattle made! Size Small. Fits easy over insulation and hard shell for normal size small or standalone, those size medium. New was $499 so $100 off (plus no sales tax so, really saving $158!) In Seattle area, glad to meet up any reasonable distance. Fill Weight: 13 oz Average Weight: 30 oz Features: Baffled construction Large interior stash pocket Zippered hand warmer pockets Zipper draft flap & lycra trim seals out drafts Fleece lined collar Removable hood Down filled zipper draft tube, draw cord hem & velcro cuffs to seal out drafts 850+ fill down The Frontpoint is a mid-length, fully baffled down jacket designed for cold winter conditions and high altitude mountaineering. The cut is roomy in the torso to accomodate other layers, and extends about four inches below the waist. The detachable hood is generously filled, wrapping around the sides to cover the lower part of the face, while the stiffened brim shields against wind and snow. The hood fits over a climbing helmet perfectly. Inside you will find large cargo pockets to carry water bottles, food, or anything else you want to keep from freezing. The Frontpoint Jacket is perfect for ice climbers or expedition climbing in Alaska, South America or for winter use in the greater ranges of North America.
  2. Hey Marcus- thank you! I've updated the posting to the price and include the breakdown of the added accessories (diagonal strap system x2 @$19 + rope catch @$15= $53)
  3. This is *the* PNW pack for climbing and mountaineering in my opinion, and those of many others (*coughAmericanAlpineInstituteGuidesChoice*cough). This is the Ballistics version so extra durable fabric only on the hard wear points. And all the straps! Lash anything and everything (crampons, rope, etc) I have three Cilo packs and am only selling his as I can (for now) manage the 30:30 pack for most of my climbs. Subsequently, this has only been on Adams, Rainier, and possibly Baker- so super minty! $250 This is a fair price and is without the notable hassle of the forever unclear production timeline from Cilo themselves, anywhere from 2-4 months, sometimes it's longer. And yes it's true, they don't ever give you updates. That for sure is the one downside of a climber-run business but then you can't be so mad when they also want to climb and the make the best packs! Plus USA made! This includes 2 sets of the diagonal carry strap system ($38) and the rope catch strap system ($15) worth $53 I'm located in Seattle and am glad to meet up anywhere reasonably close. On eBay as US*Grant for selling history. From CiloGear: The 40B is the pack of choice for cragging and weekends close to home. It is a robust and durable pack that will treat you right today and in the years to come. The 40B responds to the desire of folks for a pack that would work for Alpine cragging or serious routes in more civilized areas. The 40B is about 2.5" shorter than the 45L or 60L WorkSacks, and is just the right size for shorter folks and awesome weekends. The 40B WorkSack easily carries crampons or a water bottle in the crampon pocket. Volume Range: Normal: 42L | Expanded: 60L | Compressed: 30L | Closed: 20L Weight and Sizing Specifications Pack bag: 815g(1.8lbs) | Hip belt: 120g | Lid: 170g | Strap set: 200g | Framesheet & Pad: 590g | Total: 1895g(4.1lbs) Size by torso length 17" - 19" = Medium
  4. Hyperion Vest850 Down FillFill Weight: 3.1 ozAverage Weight: 6.9 ozSewn Through ConstructionInterior Stash Pockets & Insulated hand warmer pocketsFeathered Friends storage/stuff sack includedNever used, always stored loose so loft is as good as the day made! I've got the Hyperion Jacket as well and absolulely love it, just never found a need for the vest version. My loss, your gain! Super light, super warm$209 new (plus tax) 100% Rating on eBay (95 sales) Work downtown Seattle, will meet up within reasonable distance in Puget Sound!
  5. Brand new in box, size 9.5 mens. I won these in a raffle but I need a 9, not 9.5. These are super light, just add some Petzl Leopards and you can climb a ton in essentially sneakers! MSRP is $350, will sell for $260, have to pay tuition otherwise I'd be tempted to just deal with these being too big. Take your fast and light to the next level! I live in the Central Area, work downtown Seattle Bentgate Mountaineering Review: https://www.bentgate.com/blog/salomon-slab-x-alp-carbon-2-review/ I am located in Seattle, will meet up anywhere reasonably close. eBay seller as US*Grant for perfect selling history.
  6. I'm pretty happy with my Ambit3 Peak years later, a great ABC watch, has waypoints, and will make cool videos of your runs/climbs/hikes through the Suunto app. The brand new 9 looks nice with a touch interface but pricey. Outdoor Gear Lab has a good write up of some options: https://www.outdoorgearlab.com/topics/camping-and-hiking/best-altimeter-watch
  7. If you are looking at this, you know how amazing CiloGear packs are and this is their winner of the Guides Choice Award. This has an amazing amount of versatility in terms of expansion and compression. This can be used as a single pack for climbs and that isn't just copy. It expands to 40l with the collar extended and down to 15l compressed. I can carry everything in this to base camp and then cinch down the sides for summit day. This version is the burly Guide Service edition which adds super burly VX100 and VX42 for hyper abrasion resistance. You can see from the pictures, this is in near mint condition. Aside from the best pack for spring/summer mountaineering, you don't have to wait the 6-10 weeks for Cilo to make it for you! In short, this pack is amazing. I have three other Cilo packs and am only selling this to downsize a little. I'm in Seattle $175/obo (plus shipping if I can't find someone local)
  8. Looks great- Looking forward to doing this next later this month
