Hard to see too much detail there, but you get the picture- can be measured in volume, I imagine.

Good for you! We will expect a photo update of the rack after the trip. Hope you have a great trip.

Nice rack, DannyUncanny! Seems well thought out (and well loved). Any reason, you have your larger hex wired? Love the wiregate collection as well.

bearbreader, is that a Camp lift next to the Smart device in top right corner? If so, how do you like it?

You guys all make me jealous. I think my rack is ok until I see yours, and then I feel inadequate. ;-)

But still, I get up climbs with mine, so I suppose that is what counts.

And if you feel like helping me remove some excessive anodized color, let's get together and do something.
I couldn't help but notice the biner holding the nuts is backwards.

I just picked it up because I wanted the biggest hex they sold, and it came wired. The small one I rarely use because it's a pain to rack with other gear.

Thanks for the reminder to take insurance photos.

Hmmm...I think I need to start selling extra gear...and this doesn't even include the double rack I've long-term-loaned my brother...

Think the TSA would inspect this in a duffle?

I give a proud approval to your gear dump pic..Too many posts here spent over an hour arranging their gear and cams in lovley artsy pics. What serious climber has time for that? I think we should judge the 'best rack' by the size of the pile it makes when dumped from the pack. Standard circumference and cup size measurements work well for all I presume?

Wow, I envy all your racks, right now mine consists of 6 sport draws and a single alpine draw lol. I'm working on and I'm 14 making around 10 bucks a week

Gear will come, slowly but surely! But dude...at 14, command a higher rate! It's 2013; you can be making more than that! Get creative!

one great thing about not having money is you'll be a champ with passive pro....i was slotting nuts and hexes for a hot minute before i got my first cam.

That is true, I haven't placed a cam yet

Finally got around to an insurance inventory of my rack excluding passive pro so thought I would upload a pic. Yes, I love Indian Creek and anything similar.

Active rack
