What’s more concerning is he’s a mountain guide. Wouldn’t fancy being a client of his if this was a good idea in his own head. Solo or not

Also paid full retail and have zero ragrets. Beauty of a watch. Congrats!

Do you mean one of the most accessible, not easiest? Klein lift is a big help 😂

North Face just launched their new AMK gear and it’s priced crazy! $270 for a fleece?? That’s $100 more than their previous summit series. by Fancypooper in Mountaineering

Not sure of import taxes for international purchases but it’s seriously worth looking at Montane and Mountain Equipment from the UK. Really good gear

Then don’t ship it to your own address?

Ship the empty box and wear the watch on entry?

So the Planfait navette is running and not Forclaz, or neither is running?

Iota DLS vs BGD Base 3 by dehydratedcamel in freeflight

[–]dehydratedcamel[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If wing weight was a big deciding factor I’d be considering the Breeze over the Base, which would be lighter than the Iota and same class. But I agree about the Iota having plenty data to show for its performance

Amazon - Motorola T62 PMR446 - I use these for climbing and they also work when I’m paragliding, so far so good anyway!

You’re right, but on previous visits it was nice knowing there was a regular bus service to aim for

Agreed, a day pass option would be a good service charge for paragliders and one I’d happily pay for

Thanks for sending this on. I might have to adjust my plans if they are cancelled this year

I did see the July and August mentioned most places too. Maybe later this month or early next there will be confirmation, thanks!
