Jens Posted August 28, 2002 Posted August 28, 2002 Here is an idea I've been thinking of: A lot of us climbers have tons of gear and not a lot of extra cash. We all have gear that we; don't like anymore, have outgrown, have replaced, or don't use anymore. We could have a cascade climbers "swap meet" at Marymoor or UW rock. We could trade or buy or sell gear. I bet if even a dozen people showed up with some gear it would be a great way to score that used item we've all been to poor to lay down top dollar for. I don't have much gear to unload but would like to try this. Then some bouldering or a pint of redhook? Any takers? I'd say It's a go if we could get at least 10 people. Quote
To_The_Top Posted August 28, 2002 Posted August 28, 2002 Marymoor, easy to get to and more room. Quote
Jens Posted August 28, 2002 Author Posted August 28, 2002 UW rock would proabably get more people but I only go there about once every four years and it seems like the parking lot is always full. Marymoor has a parking lot that is always empty ( we could lay shit out on tarps), a huge grassy field and tons of space. But if more people would prefer UW, I'd go there. But I think Mary moor would be better. 520 isn't that bad you Seattleites Are people game for trading or swaping some gear? I don't have much cash. __________________________ Midweek soon. Quote
jon Posted August 28, 2002 Posted August 28, 2002 This is a killer idea. Let me take this a step further. Is there going to be a fall rope up? That could be a good place to do it. Another idea is to have this along with a slide show and which I can get silver buddies for way cheap. Either way we can have more then one. Rock on Jens! Quote
