I've gone a little off the deep end with this climbing gear thing. There's so much to learn about what constitutes a beginning rack, basic winter mountaineering equipment, what sort of carabiner defines me as a person, etc that I've decided to start cataloguing the gear I've been aquiring. The first pictures are just big dumps of my 'rack' up until now, with a couple of pics of some winter mountaineering gear thrown in. I'll break this down into sections later on, and then add pictures of stuff as I aquire it. I'll also make notes of my thoughts on why I chose one piece or brand of gear over another so I can think nostalgiacally about it while I'm broke.
