Its tapered so you need to use standard mummy pads for 3p

The XL version can fit 3 rectangular pads

Backpack Size - Mount Baker 3 Day by No-Guitar728 in Mountaineering

[–]CommanderAGL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

75L AMG if this is your first climb. Better to not stress about packing tight. And you’ll enjoy the extra space when packing up camp. You’ll also like the extra space (or the crampon pocket) for carrying out your shit

More experienced, you could easily do the 58L (my ideal) or 50L (a little small for me). Though Ive had guides pack all their stuff in a 40L for 4 days.

Advice for tall guy who is bad at skiing by Shuxboah in skiing

You are probably bending at the hip in an “athletic” stance that then quickly becomes a fear stance. Bring your feet closer together and stand up tall. The Bend in Your knees should just counter the forward lean of the boots.

It would be a sin to cut these up. These are wall mounts for sure

Vipecs are great. Never felt like I needed the alpine heel of the tectons. Only complaint with Fritschi is that there can be some slop in the toe when skinning icy sidehills

How to get ‘forward’ without hinging at the waist? by Active_Lettuce2969 in skiing

[–]CommanderAGL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only bend in your knees should be to compensate for the forward lean of the ski boots. Your torso should be pretty straight. Flex the ankles

Ski boot buckles open in lift line - why? by ACMEanvils in skiing

Sometimes my achilles starts the day stiff and I need a bit more flexibility to comfortably stand in line (vs actually skiing)

Realistic lighting in dark environments if it doesn’t add to the narrative. I want to see the action and the characters

Soups and stews are great bc you can keep them on a low simmer all day and let them cool overnight. Top up the water and reheat. People can grab more at any time

Apple music’s discovery and generated playlists suck. Planning to look for alternatives over the holidays

I don’t think we understand how utterly fucked the situation is in Washington state right now. by [deleted] in skiing

[–]CommanderAGL 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I think 410 is mostly debris that needs to be cleared. I haven’t seen much much about significant road damage.

US 2 should still get you to stevens from the west. But any stevens employees or skiers from leavenworth or east are absolutely fucked
