I lost a Grivel GSB crampon on the descent from Scruffy Band last winter.

It is a Grivel, and it is pretty well used. Likely it's yours, though I'm pretty sure I found it closer to superslabs, though we were doing a bunch of bush-hacking.

Want to meet up sometime this week?

The GSB-style has a distinctive toe bale, a U-shaped tongue that fits into a hole in the front of the boot instead of a traditional wire that fits over the welt. My phone # is 435 640 5343. I'd be happy to compensate you for your trouble.

Yip, you nailed it, that's definately the one. I'll give you a ring tomorrow.

Why would you be using a crampon to slab climb in June ? I don't understand this.

Its still winter here...and, that area is north facing. Stays frosty all summer long.
