Friedrich Posted April 7, 2011 Posted April 7, 2011 Need to beg, borrow or buy (cheap) a fistful of knifeblade or thin pitons. Working on a new Alpine route project and ran out of pitons on my last attempt. There is an entire pitch of piton-only M4/5. It's all thin icy proto-cracks and frozen turf. Nothing else will work. I only have a small handful and so I thought I'd put this out to the community to see if one or more of you can help me out. I promise the TR will be epic! SO, please PM me if you have some thin blades or small angles you are willing to lend/sell/gift. If you are bodily attached to the pitons and want to help push up the rope, also let me know. Thanks Quote
Friedrich Posted April 7, 2011 Author Posted April 7, 2011 DPS you are the man. Funny meeting up with you again in this unexpected and totally cool karmic way. Cheers my friend! Quote
genepires Posted April 8, 2011 Posted April 8, 2011 you should go to feathered friends store and tell them you want to nail city park and need to buy some. Quote
DPS Posted April 8, 2011 Posted April 8, 2011 Or stop by Dan Smith's gear garage. Always a good deal to be had there. Quote
