Thanks Ari - responded.

Got a bunch of extra climbing stuff that I need to sell to support yet another hobby. I'm in Kirkland and would prefer to sell face to face rather than ship. Send me a PM or email me at johnjaguiar(at)hotmail.com Thanks for looking, John. Charlet Aztars - great alpine tool. Lightweight, so if you ice climb in these get the wrist flick down. $100 for both w/ leashes and extra picks (the extra picks are beat so use them dry tooling) Camalot #6 - this is the new style. Carried it and used it once on the offwidth on backbone ridge. $50 Camalot #5 - same story as the #6 $50 Metolius TCU's, Red, Orange, Yellow, Blue. Well used but never abused $15 each or $50 for all 4 M10 Charlet crampons - I've got the mono points on, but have the extra points. Have the back part of the anti-bot mounted - don't have the front part of the anti bots. Sharpen 'em up and you're good to go. $40 Charlet 12 point crampons - circa 2000. Perfectly useful for general mountaineering $20 Quark Cascade picks - all of these are used, some a lot, some not so much. Some are still good for general ice, some for dry tooling practice. $30 for all of them Black Diamond Lost Arrow #4 - never placed $10 Black Diamond Knife Blades #4,#6,#6 and an Angle - placed a couple of the pins a couple of times, never placed the angle. $5 each, $25 for all the pins (including the LA) Black Diamond quickdraws - get your sport on $5 each, $20 for all 5 Petzl Gri Gri - like new, used only a couple times. $40 Belay devices. 2 BD ATC's, 1 Trango Jaws, 1 reverso (edges are worn but not to a knife edge), 1 reversino $5 each Ice Screws, 1 21cm Grivel, 1 19cm BD, 1 13cm charlet, 2 10cm bd - decent shape $15 each, $70 for all 5 Nut tool $5 Assorted Lockers, 2 Mammut, 1 auto locker Mammut, 1 petzl, 3 bd's $5 each, $30 for all 7 Black Diamond 5 step Aiders. Used them twice on the two times I've climbed the bolt ladder on monkey face. Otherwise they've been in a plastic tote. $15 for both aiders Ice axe leashes - 2 charlet, 1 bd, and 1 grivel $5 each

(5) BFG MT 255/75/17 (5) 17" x 7.5", 5x5 bolt pattern, 6.25" Backspace, Aluminum Rubicon wheels. I have five OEM wheels and tires off of a 2008 Jeep Wrangler JK Rubicon. The tires are a special 32" BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain with an improved tread pattern unique to the JK Rubicon. They have under 2000 miles on them, except the spare which was never driven on. The tires are mounted on the wheels and inflated with new valves, but the Tire Pressure Monitoring System's sensor valves were removed and re-installed on the new wheels and tires I put onto the Jeep. So you can either run these as is, or you can have your tire shop swap your own TPMS sensors from your current wheels to these new ones, and you won't have to fuss with having to get the dealership to reprogram your TPMS. They will fit the following Jeeps that use the 5 x 5 lug pattern: '07-Current Wrangler & Wrangler Unlimited JK '99-'04 Grand Cherokee WJ '05-Current Grand Cherokee WK '06-Current Commander XK I think $600 is a fair price. I am in Kirkland and as I don't have a truck to carry all 5 at the same time, I'd prefer you pick them up.

I found an ice screw and quick draw that were left high on the Paradise Falls route in Leavenworth. If you can describe it and want it back let me know.

Just got back from leavenworth. Was at rainbow falls and it is in and relatively fat. Other stuff looked in too. Was 19F when we got back to the car at 4:30pm.

Like KK said visualizing success helps a lot. also when you get those moments, just focus on one foot at a time. step. next step. and step again. step. step. step. step. focusing on a simple repetitive thing like your footwork will shift your attention away from your negative thoughts. in fact it's almost trance like - think of natives dancing around the fire before going into battle - they do that on purpose to focus the mind and crowd out thoughts of doubt. also don't forget that EVERYONE has these doubts, they just happen at different points for different people of varying levels of experience, and also different people handle them differently .. some push through them and some don't. i can't count how many times I've gone to do something, actually started hiking up, and then said .. "ah, screw this I don't feel like it"

driving past on sunday ...

Great TR .. looking forward to heading up there next week. By the way, I thought THOS was beyond the road closure .. isn't there a mile marker "39" sign before the first water crossing that no vehicles are supposed to go beyond? .. you mentioned you drove right to the base of the climb, so has this restriction been lifted or did you not know/see the sign? By the way 2, how were the snow drifts in the ghost?

I've done this mod. It's not too hard and the results are good. I'd recommend using a really sharp knife, preferably a utility razor knife and taking off a little bit of the grip rubber at a time. Better to take your time than to remove too much.

We went via 90 late last night and returned by 2. This was my first time out there so not sure which ones were Park and Blue, but the best ice we saw was around what we did. The top part of Zenith and Salt n Pepper looked do-able, not by me though. Other than that everything else was delamned, wet, and falling down - even if it got cold they would need to grow in size. On the way back we drove through Leavenworth and looked up the icicle, hubba hubba and drury was in fog, but it was colder there than at Banks and there was lot's of ice that looked "almost there". Icicle buttress looked really fun, both R+D and Chicken gully looked really cool. Crack and friends did Chicken gully last week and he says it was a lot fatter today.

My partner and I were out there today. We looked at the punch bowl in the morning and debated whether to do it or not. It was really warm and we decided against it. The only other do-able option was this little thing hidden in the bushes around mile 10 that we later learned was Brush Bash. Ok I guess, but a long way to drive for 50' of ice/brush climbing. When we went back to the punch bowl the largest of the deathcicles on the right had fallen - and while we were standing there looking at it part of the upper ice on the left completely collapsed and came crashing down spraying both the left and right sides of the climb with ice - yikes, glad we had decided against climbing there.

All that and bluegrass on the satellite radio too, you da man erik !!

Yes, life is pretty good

I bought a pair of the new trango S model last week. I've only worn them twice so far. Once walking around town after I got them and once on a hike up to Lk Serene. So far so good. They hike really well, are comfortable w/o any hot spots and are flexible (so flexible that I worry if they'll front point ok). When hiking up to the lake on Sunday I purposely walked through every water section on the trail I could find, and my feet stayed dry and warm (really warm .. which is good for me in an uninsulated boot because I get cold feet easily) The most noticable thing about these boots is how light they are. They look big and burly, but they're lighter than some "light hikers". Taking them to the Tetons this summer and hope to do everything from easy rock to snow and ice couloirs .. we'll see.

Yeah, we were looking at that one too. the approach by canoe looks fun. I'll have to make sure we figure out how to do the double pendulums first though, neither of us have ever done that before.

This is pretty neat too, I can think of lot's of times it would have come in handy.
