Woodcutter Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 Is that the A5 Alpine ledge? or the Cliff Cabana? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
genepires Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 heard that mcnamara was saying that a5 is the best ledges in his opinion and was bummed that they no longer made them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toni Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 Hi! I am very interested in this portaledge and have been looking for one for ages...I would be able to pay via pay pal.  Could you send me some photos to my email address: sk810@gmx.de  Is there a fly with the ledge.  Thanks!

bsperry Posted June 13, 2011 Author Share Posted June 13, 2011 (edited) Hi Toni- Â I have been on vacation, sorry for late reply. Portaledge looks like the one in the catalog that I attached to the post. It has a fly that covers the entire ledge. I will try to post a picture of the one time I used it. Yes the rain fly is included. Edited June 13, 2011 by bsperry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsperry Posted June 13, 2011 Author Share Posted June 13, 2011 (edited) Woodcutter - It is the Alpine Double Ledge based on comparing the ledge to A5 catalog. I will try to post actual picture of ledge during its only use. Edited June 13, 2011 by bsperry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montana_Climber Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 John Middendorf's design is still far better than anything out there today. The only other ledge I would consider is the Fish ledge. Metolius makes a bomber ledge but for a double with fly you're looking at 30 lbs. Â Middendorf made a titanium ledge for one of his expeditions. It was sub 10 lbs for ledge and fly. If you ask him, he'll provide the designs to build your own. They can be found on www.bigwalls.com. You'll notice the graphic on the site as the same from the front of that catalog posted above.
