Ice Axe and Crampon Rentals (SoCal)

Postby 63ChevyII » Fri Dec 19, 2014 1:20 pm

My usual rental place (college campus) is closed 12/22 - 1/5. During that time period, I may want to rent 3 ice axes and 3 sets of crampons. Does anyone know of a place locally (San Berdoo or Riverside area would be ideal).

Thanks!

I don't know of anywhere locally. I wasn't even aware that a college would do it. The liability exposure would be pretty significant.

Maybe Bishop or Lone Pine? Maybe Big Bear?

I am thankful that the college I work for rents them. I can get an ice axe and crampons for $8 per day.

I will give Tustin REI a shot the next time around. I didn't end up having the time to hike, so I didn't need them.
