jewels421 Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 (edited) I am doing a charity climb of Rainier in a couple of weeks for Big City Mountaineers (a mentoring organization that takes at-risk urban youth on wilderness trips). In exchange for raising funds for the charity, we receive a gear pack of items. Since I already have a bunch of the stuff they’re sending us, I thought I would sell some of the new gear (as well as some of my used gear that the new gear is replacing), in exchange for donations to my fundraising account. Here are the items and the requested donations. My Big City Mountaineers fundraising website accepts credit cards – cash/check are fine too. - Men’s La Sportiva Lhotse Boots – $210. Brand new in box. Size 43.5. These boots retail for $420. http://www.sportiva.com/products/prod/236 - Softshell Pants – $60. Mammut Women’s Pala pants, Size 10 (Euro – 40) Color: Graphite.
