I didn't get an exact count, but did a quick once-over earlier today since I've been thinking about it since this thread popped up. Pretty sure I counted 56 on quickdraws, 41 on trad/alpine draws and 30+ on full and partial racks. So over 100 non-lockers, and if I had to guess somewhere in the neighborhood of 20-30 lockers... A better question would be how many pairs of shoes and how many harnesses do you have?

Probably a couple hundred. And, I might add, at least four times a year, I use almost all of them!

I've only parted with a couple pairs of totally worn out shoes..all the rest of them, including perfectly good ones that just won't fit right, are sitting in storage somewhere,,along with same amount of old non fitting harnesses too.

Especially "sportos" who most likely can't rescue you/lead pitches too should you beef it. That timeframe is where you should still be with a mentor or guide of your own...

Your response pretty much confirms your arrogant attitude. But yeah around one year of climbing is where everyone thinks they know everything. Do yourself a favor (if you haven't already) and take a few classes on rescue and lead with partners of similar/greater experience than you. Yer gonna die
