Lost: Belay Glasses

I lost some CU belay glasses in a plastic white box - last seen at the Solarium on 3rd November. They could have been left at the Solarium or somewhere in the Pendergrass-Murray / Motherlode area on 4th November.
If anyone has found a pair please get in touch. I will gladly pay for the postage.
Thanks,
Neil

More Trendy Crap. Does it really substitute actually looking at your climber?

All you haters need to remember that these were already blessed by the almighty many moons ago. He returned from Mt. Motherlode with two busted holds, one in each hand, and a promise to rid belayer's worldwide of chronic neck pain.

You need to try them before you judge. I think they are awesome. Most people that use them feel that they give a better belay as they are able to watch their partner much more consistently. Just takes some getting use to.

Expensive loss. Hope they find their way back to you.
They are great to use, no neck strain. I usually leave mine in my pack though, only to remember them mid-belay.

Really? I see my climber better in the Cave than I do with my own 20/20 vision.
