cams found a home with jaford.

sorry Joe, you were 3 min to late.

Woah, in the 20 years I've been climbing, I've never seen those cams!
The trigger levers are crazy interesting.
Are you sure you don't have a collectible set there?
I'm thinking they belong in a museum.
Serious.

Seriously they do belong in a museum. No point to climb on those

Edit for matt: Ugh... they look fine to me too and yes I would whip on them too but theres no point to thrash them when they could be saved

These were probably the last of rigid stem cams.
From the Nuts Museum

The HB Fix, marketed in 1990, had a strong, hot forged stem, yet not to infringe on Ray Jardine's patent, the trigger assembly was completely redesigned. Two separate triggers operated each a pair of cams, a system that HB protected by taking out a patent on the 3rd January 1991.

The Nuts Museum

Those cams look fine to me. They are hb cams. Quality. Id take rides on those all day!. And they look fresh for being so old.

3 minutes. Damn it. Thanks anyways.

Ok so we're cleaning out the house and I find an old The Columbia Mountains of Canada Central guidebook. Authors: Fox, Laurilla, Putnam and Whipple. Now, the binding fell apart so I had 3 ring binder holes punched (at the print shop) and all the pages are intact. Excellent guidebook and read, although it is the 1992 seventh edition. Good photos too.

This is free to anyone who wants it. Just pm me and I'll send it - no charge.

Also, think a taker should go to Canada and post up a trip report at the end of the summer!

the museum

Sounds awesome, I'll take the Canada guide!

Free ski helmets!

One is a childs helmet, the other is a size adult small.

These have been sitting in my house forever. Kids helmet is banged up, but the adult small is in great shape.

Ams check your email.

This book will be on its way tomorrow!

the museum

Two kid size BD harnesses, fit waist size 19-25 inches.

Mildly scuffed from canyoneering trips, we'd still be using them if the kids had just stopped growing.

Gone

I also still have a pair of size 38.5 Testarossas with a fresh resole. Too painful for my feet.

Gone

I'll take them !

How much for shipping Mark?

Specifically the shoes, but I actually need a kids harness too!

PM sent on kids harnesses

Haven't gotten any PMs yet. Maybe try again.

Shipping would be whatever it costs, maybe $6-10? I have a couple of old boxes I can use. Probably cheaper than the flat rate USPS boxes.

I just resent my PM

PM sent on ski helmet

I have about 30 or so Climbing magazines and 20 or so Summit magazines from the late 70's through the mid 80's that are looking for a good home. They are way too heavy to ship so it is local pickup only. I live in Mountain View, CA. If you are interested, shoot me a PM. Free! Free! Free!

If you still have them in March I would be more than happy to take them off your hands! I'm crazy about historical climbing magazines!
