Come one, come all, to the latest CAC Gear Swap! It's Wednesday, June 12 at the Gene Pool near Beckman Auditorium at 6:30 - 8:30 pm. See link for directions.

Tired of sounding like a wind chime boutique sucked into Hurricane Sandy whenever you go climbing with your grandpop's hexes? Do you want to buy fancy new cams for cheap from a misguided former climber who made a baby, even if he breaks into tears as he parts with them?

Then you're in luck! The gear whores of Los Angeles will be at our annual Gear Swap in just two weeks. Last year people bought, sold, and traded trad racks, portaledges, ice axes, crampons, and books.

If you have something to sell, email me and I will add it to the webpage. (You don't have to, though!) Tell all your friends--this is a great opportunity to buy or sell technical and non-technical gear for really cheap. It's also a great chance to rub shoulders with local climbers and hikers. Hope to see you here!

No, but if last year was any indication you can buy enough cheap aluminum to melt and make your own.

What no love for OC? ...would be nice to see this Swap on a weekend when it would be possible to get up there [traffic]. Maybe next year it can be switched up??

Bump for the best gear swap in Socal.

If you have a Silent Partner, modified gri gri, BD double portaledge fly, beaks, copperheads, pitons, or other big wall stuff for sale, I will personally buy it!

This is tonight! I have some sweet fresh booty for you (and though I just took a shower for the first time in a week, I do not mean my fanny).
