The "light alpine" part is key. I assume you will be using it to lead alpine pitches, so a 40 is a reasonable length and not too heavy in a fat enough diameter to be a lead rope.
I just got off the Grand Teton with JHMG and that is what they are using for that application. If you plan on more technical climbs then a 60m would be better (which is what we used on the other days for rock climbs.)
I agree it is a constitutional right for Americans to be assholes...its just too bad that so many take the opportunity...iscariot
