Expedition Equipment

This Page Is Under Construction…

The Expedition Committee is acquiring equipment used on expeditions that many climbers may not have. We maintain this equipment in a locker at the Mazamas Mountaineering Center and it can be checked out by Mazama members for use on expeditions.

Expectation of Use of Borrowed Gear:

  1. Borrowed expedition equipment is intended for use by Mazama members only. 
  2. Equipment is intended to be used on climbing expedition and extended trips.
  3. Borrowed items are to be returned in the same condition that they were checked out minus some normal wear and tear. 
  4. Items depleted are expected to be replenished by the borrower, for example when borrowing the first aid supplies if there is a situation where all or most of the 4x4 bandages are used the borrower should purchase a box of 4x4s and return them with the kit.

  • Mountain Hardware Kiva shelter
  • Mountain Hardware Trango 3 person, 4 season tent
