It replaces another similar rescue knife that I lost while hiking.

I need to play with the 360's. I've only ever used BD, Salewa, and Camp screws before. Cling clang! They are a thing of glory, Taco. Glory. They don't bite quite as quickly as the BDs do, but they go in SOOOO nice, and you can put them everywhere - even in your butt. Cheek, that is. What kind of a ...

Lee Vining:ICE - This Weekend

Hey Kids!

Conditions are great on the approach ( no snow ), and the ice seems to be in decent shape on Chouinard Falls and the low-angle stuff up-canyon. We seem to be losing our group as the weekend draws close. If you're interested, hit me up at adamburch at gmail dot com.
