Ice Climbin' Stuff

[Phil K]

OK, be nice to the old fella. I'm cleaning out the basement, and my ice climbing days are finito. Some of this stuff is definitely antiquated, and may have lost all its cool/useful factor. I can handle that. 

First the good stuff: Ice screws!  1-20cm BD Express, 2-20cm Grivel 360s, 3-15cm Grivel 360s, 2-12 cm 360s. Teeth are in very good to excellent condition. These are all older style Grivels with a more compact hanger design. They're great for placing in tight spots. Included is an OR tool roll for hauling them around without damaging them or your pack's contents. Asking $300 for the set.

 

Grivel Wing Ice Tools. Back in the day these got the job done, and still would, but....? They've seen some modifications: Originally came as the light alpine model with aluminum spike; I added stainless steel spikes, shaft was drilled, custom adapters and stainless hardware used to install BD quick release leashes. Then I realized leashless was the biz and added a pommel and upper grip. If nothing else, maybe the spare picks are still desirable. In addition to the Evolution picks mounted on the tools, I have 2 NOS Evolutions and 1 NOS Gulotte; unused. And another 3 Evolutions in various states of decripitude. Make me an offer.

 

'Had enough Grivel yet? How about a set of Rambo crampons! Comes with antibotts. Right now setup as mono's but all the hardware is there to convert back to dual. Points are in good condition, not used for scratching up rock. Comes with a nice Onsite Equipment crampon bag from our friends up north, eh? Let's say $50 OBO.

 

Back to the land of BD. Good general purpose steel crampons; I forget what model they are. $30.

 

3 handy clippers to attach to your harness and rack all those sweet screws you scored from here. $10

 

And finally. I have 2- 60cm snow pickets; one an MSR Coyote, one is from SMC. (No pics) They're pretty much equivalent. $15 each OBO. Or, if you're one of those crazy, poor, badass kids who rolls the dice on bail gear, I might just give these to ya.

A portion of the proceeds goes to support this fine site!

potentially interested in the pickets, where are you located?

[Phil K]

West Seattle. They could be shippable.

I got the same grivel tools and poons.  I really like those items so you dont have to talk them down.  they are still worthy but I get out ice climbing as much as you do so what do I know?

The roll of screws went (via the big auction site) to some dude in North Bend. Everything else is still available, and the prices are very negotiable.
