WTT: Petzl Leopard for hybrid steel crampon

[John_B]

It probably makes for some pretty bizarre conversations in the patrol shack too. What a clusterfuck.

In the East Slopes North forecast NWAC phrased the current travel conditions as "decent for snowshoes, ok for snowmobiles, and very bad for skis, snowboards, and snow skates.” Ugh...

It's a fun game to play. How close to skiing do you want to be? What's your opinion on snowmobiles? How trashy of neighbors can you tolerate?

I'm interested in trading my Leopards for a set of Irvis Hybrids or Blue Ice Harfang Hybrids. Crampons are well used and come with full auto attachments plus a toe basket that can be swapped on.

I'm having issues with photo uploads but am happy to swap photos via email before a sale.

Good to see TSG taking this shit a bit more seriously and not sending this offer to the media at the same time they sent it to patrol.

I was a liftie for 2 years in T-ride 15 years ago and fantasized about organizing a liftie strike over our $10 an hour pay.

It was a helluva...

On the east side of the Cascades I was pretty annoyed at xtratufs for winter because the soles would get packed with snow walking to my truck then any drive longer than a few minutes was enough time for that snow to fall out and leave a nice slush pile on my floor mats. Lacrosse or Muck boots have been...

I am lucky enough to live a mile from my in-laws.

I just had a talk with my wife that it's her choice, but either she can talk with her mom that it's not ok to just walk into our house and go "is any one home?” or I can. Fucking boundaries man!
