High Alpine Bouldering Kit

By: What Matters?, 1 year 2 months ago


Last August, Jason Kehl, Pete Takeda, Mick Follari and I spent two months bouldering in the Indian Himalayas, expedition-style. This was the most complex and gear-heavy excursion I've ever been on, so I thought I'd share my hit-list of the most useful, compact, lightweight and durable equipment. Here's my top 10 collection of Himalayan-tested products that you might find helpful for your next high alpine adventure.
