chrisc88 replied to JasonG's topic in Climber's Board
Love this! I'll put $225 on "Image #2. Eldorado from Primus." -
Agreed on all accounts! Thanks for putting up the conditional beta a few weeks prior, that was nice/lucky to read before heading out! It was also cool to see a few remnants of your bootpack up super high on the ridge. As for those crampons, yeah.... I still don’t know how I feel about them after using them for a couple years. It’s a love hate relationship.

Not "super fat", but still very possible to get good sticks and place screws and protect without any rock gear or pins.

[TR] Hood - Flying Buttress & Wy'east 05/15/2020
chrisc88 replied to chrisc88's topic in Oregon Cascades
There was a brief period of time (C19 closure related) that to access the Timberline Highway you needed a hotel reservation at the Timberline Lodge. Typically this is not the case. -

chrisc88 replied to kadyakerbob's topic in Oregon Cascades
Thanks for the fantastic condition report! Not as many windows as 2019 this winter, but it looks like things are shaping up! -
Through a strange turn of events, I managed to pick up an extra 2x sets of BD Alpine Carbon Z 120cm poles that I cannot return. I searched around a bit and tried to price these lower than anything else on the internet!$155 shipped per set, and I’ll knock of $10 if you can pick up in Seattle (98101)

I’ve got two of these, still totally new, each for $100. Great deal!Pickup in Seattle, or slap on $10 to be shipped in the USA.
