Can anyone recommend a shop that will rent splitboards and skins around Seattle or near Stevens Pass? Thank you!

Hi Sprocket, There will be a lot of beginner/intermediate xcountry gear as well as some backcountry touring gear. Also, families come and bring their kids gear to sell to other families. It's kind of all over the board. Definitely a lot of good deals. There will be some shops there too to help with fitting, etc.

North Cascades Mountain Guides is proud to announce another year of the Methow Valley Ski swap. NCMG is partnering with Winthrop Mountain Sports, the Goats Beard Mountain Supply, the Methow Valley Ski School, Cascades Outdoor Store and Methow Cycle and Sport. The swap returns to the Red Barn in Winthrop on Saturday, November 1st, from 10am-2pm. The format will be a bit different this year than in years past. Vendors can set up between 7:30- 9:45am. At 10am the doors will open to the shopping public. There will be a $2 entrance fee to come in and shop (kids under 16 free). In true swap fashion, vendors will stay with their goods, talk to shoppers and negotiate the sales. 15% of all sales will go to the Winthrop barn and the MV Nordic team. The 15% will be on the honor system, so vendors should keep track of sales and then settle up when leaving. Questions?
