I have plenty of screws, nuts n hexes are cheap. Question is should I drop the $$ on cams. Looking to build with Huntington gullies mostly. Possibly other white mtn objeves maybe some in the dacks. To cam of not? Should I stick just to screws??
When the ice season is in full swing, none of the Huntington Gullies require rock pro. All can be protected with screws or pickets. That being said, I think cams are easier to deal with than pickets, so I'll carry 2-3 to place when I can't get solid screws.
Routes like Damnation Buttress and Northeast Ridge of the Pinnacle (as a mixed climb) don't get much in the way of screw protection, so cams are ideal for those.
