Fuggedaboudit Posted May 3, 2006 Posted May 3, 2006 Can anyone give me a store (or two) on the way to the WR entrance from SeaTac airport that sells the isobutane gas cannisters? Cant fly with them and our flight gets in around noon, hoping to get in the rental and drive into park and register day before we set off for the climb. Quote
dt_3pin Posted May 3, 2006 Posted May 3, 2006 REI in Federal Way would be on your way. Â Make sure you bring your time machine. Quote
dt_3pin Posted May 3, 2006 Posted May 3, 2006 It closed not long after they opened the Tacoma store. I think that spot is an off-ramp now. Â The Tukwila REI isn't too far out of the way if you're going from Sea-Tac to the White River entrance. Quote
DirtyHarry Posted May 3, 2006 Posted May 3, 2006 Been a while since I inhabited the south Puget Sound area. Â Sportco in Fife wouldn't be too far out of the way. There's also Federal Way Discount Guns. They don't sell isobutane, but you could get some cheap guns! Quote
ridgeline Posted May 3, 2006 Posted May 3, 2006 I am going to Whittaker's in ashford on the way into the park. be there on friday for a trip up gib ledges friday night. When and where are you going? Quote
Fuggedaboudit Posted May 4, 2006 Author Posted May 4, 2006 (edited) There's also Federal Way Discount Guns. They don't sell isobutane, but you could get some cheap guns! Â Now c'mon I'll admit you guys have the alpine over us but seriously, cheap guns? I can get cheap guns on my corner, no waiting period or background check- $200 and a pack of Newports, good to go! Â Thanks, that REI in Tukwila is on the way I'll stop in there. Â Ridgeline- I am heading out west first week of June, checking out a certain northern ridge climb (again, again . . .) A guy I climbed the Emmons with last year will be there the same time as you also looking at the Gib Ledges, he is "snowball" on this site. I see you are from NE, send me a PM my friends and I get in 4-5 weekends of ice every winter in 'Dacks, NH and VT. Edited May 4, 2006 by Fuggedaboudit Quote
