Yeah, new rope.

Some micro-nuts and ball nuts are on the list too.

Oh and a #4 C4.

My slings are getting pretty old and fuzzy.

Most of that will have to wait until I'm rich. Unsure

Whenever I watch the Totem Cams video, I think to myself, every single route at Looking Glass is going to have pro every two or three feet.

Well ordered a set of Awaxs today, so need to put a lid on the spending. But Ill pickup some strikes, grip tape and some hammer picks for them in the future.

Also want a bivy sack, screamers and a few dead men.

Oh yea, I need to put a lid on the spending!

Plane tix to Red Rocks!

Woot!

P.S. And maybe a v-thread tool for the next time I think "oh, I can climb that" without consulting a guidebook.

Ushba ascenders suck--get something else.

I'm buying a new hammer drill.

Not sure. But, I'm also not sure I'm going to buy them, since I really don't need them, or any other gear for that matter.

Actually, you know what? My next gear purchase will almost certainly be two of these: http://www.rockclimbing.com/...1;page=unread#unread

Next gear for me: probably the 3rd edition of the RRG guide book.....assuming it comes out this spring, otherwise I'm sure I'll buy something else before then.

I was a googlin', and it sounded like Summer 2010. But then you run into all these other proposed release dates...

I need to get into buying more guidebooks. I spend too much on gear and too little on finding where to place it.

A long, skinny rope, and hopefully a bunch of new uber-light biners. Oh and a new harness to replace my old Cadillac.
