I doubled the DMM Wallnuts #6, 7 & 8. so the two biners with the whole set would have 3 overlapping sizes (#1 - #8 and #6 - #11)

This is quite useful if I grab the wrong biner from the harness.

I picked up a stubby BD ice screw, the old style express (with the black handle) for about 25 bucks on STP a few weeks ago. They only had one in stock, or I would have grabbed some more.

Best beacon I've ever owned. I haven't practiced with it enough as the bastards stole my practice beacon too. I'll probably buy a used DTS tracker for that duty.

The stubai soft pins are great in the rockies. You should consider picking up a ring angle and a universal (w/ ring) or 2 as well.

TC Pro's. Got 2 pitches in them this weekend before having to call it a day due to painful blisters.

Thankfully to no fault of the shoes though. I left my socks at home for the approach, adn climbing tape didn't do squat for the hot spots. Should've been prepared with some duct tape. Unsure

A Voile avalanche probe.
Had a fatality locally within the week so it was timely, and may I never need to use it in fury.

I also bought a new roll of tape.. been using a few bollards for anchor lately.

-New harness (Singing Rock Balance to replace beater Alpine Bod.)
-A burly pair of Liberty Mtn. steel twistlock 30kN ovals, Kong KISA plate, and 14' of 10mm cord = DIY fall-arrest lanyard.
Ropes course gig makes it all tax-deductible to boot, and trying to get a trip to Nelson Rocks together in October.

A .75 Omega Pacific link cam to replace a green camalot that took the big fall off the cobra in yosemite. Love this thing on blind traversing placements... already used it a bunch in those situations and still haven't had a big fall on it... maybe cuz it helps me send!

Last thing I bought was... Well, I guess it was a hat and a goretex jacket, but the last actual piece of hardwear I bought was a red link cam.
Last thing my brother bought? A full strength harness for his dog.
