Mer Posted September 15, 2003 Posted September 15, 2003 Siltarp--just haven't got in the habit of packing it. and I used up the seam sealer on something else. 10 cm ice screw. --carried it, haven't had to place it yet. 12 in. Bundt pan--It came in a set. I've used the cookie sheet and the muffin tin, but I've never made a bundt cake. Quote

jordop Posted September 15, 2003 Posted September 15, 2003 Patagucci Stretch Speed Ascent. Stupid warm, so I cut the fleece liner out and it's my new ski stretchysoft thingy fer this year. Mtn HWear Chugach Parka. The thing is huge and conduit coating for like Arctic stuff I guess. Hanging on to it in case I ever have to work up north Lowe Superfangs. Make me an offer. Awesome Jeff Lowe retro 80s look Quote
sk Posted September 15, 2003 Posted September 15, 2003 I have aiders and a fi fi hook. I haven't used them YET Quote
Ursa_Eagle Posted September 15, 2003 Posted September 15, 2003 A few cheap titanium ice screws. I got them as leaver screws, and thankfully haven't had to bail off anything yet where I'd need to leave them. Quote

Maybe this is a dumb question, but what is the situation where you'd use ice screws to bail rather than vee thread? Like when you are in a super hurry to get down as in a thunderstorm or something?

Like when you are in a super hurry to get down as in a thunderstorm or something? some of us weren't intelligent enough to figure that out when they bought the screws for cheap. needless to say, they don't get carried around much.

It's pretty spicy to v-thread thin runnels, or ice-filled cracks. Quote

And wut the hell is a ropeman? Guess you're making some assumptions there, eh Ed? I use a munter and ATC for most belays. And I've long used a gigi for double ropes. Why bother with another device? I got a sweet deal on it this spring, but I haven't been dissatisfied with my other methods enough to pick up the Reverso. Like rumr said, the Ropeman is a nice small ascender. Look on www.wildcountry.co.uk if you really want to see it. Yeah, I forgot about that Fifi hook. Maybe it would make a nifty keychain. Easy-daisies made the Fifi irrelevant before I ever got a chance to use it. Quote
bunglehead Posted September 15, 2003 Posted September 15, 2003 I have a Clark handbuilt Overdrive pedal that I never use. Make me an offer. Quote
EWolfe Posted September 15, 2003 Posted September 15, 2003 #00 rp's tiblocs #5 camalot (just got it) (it would be cool to use the first and the third on the same climb) Quote
slothrop Posted September 16, 2003 Posted September 16, 2003 Snow fluke. Anyone going to Alaska wanna buy it? Plastic map folder. I just get laminated maps or those cool Nat'l Geo maps on waterproof paper. Pins. Haven't used either of 'em (yet). 40' of 4mm cord for bear-bagging. I always end up camping where there are neither bears nor trees. Quote
