    2017 elk trip

    Your going in sept correct ? You have way too much clothing imo. First I'd get rid of 2 pairs of socks. 2 pairs of undies Both kelvin jacket and pants. Gloves Mountain pants. Ascent jacket you only need 1 Wear the ascent pants or something similar. You don't need a 2nd pair of pants...

    A rope man probably would have prevented the fall because he had the Prussik tied incorrectly. Complacency does kill. Were you in the service ? Saddle assasin - google arborist 2in1 lanyard. There are different layouts but the concept is the same. 1 rope that you can work off and be tied off...

    not sure what you mean by limbs rope. I use a 2in1 type lanyard. It allows me to work off both ends and go over limbs when I'm climbing and always be hooked in. When I get to the top I just tie off with a figure 8. And that Prussik that I linked is the only thing that keeps me from falling.

    It's sewn. And yes that's what I use. It's rated over 4K lbs. I believe. The shrink tube just makes it look nicer. It serves no other purpose.

    Sitka

    Never heard of the companies you mentioned. I'm gonna check them out. Look at Kifaru. Supposedly they don't have retailers either and look how much their stuff costs. Pnuma stuff is legit though. Like I said on par and in some instances better than Sitka. Plus a lifetime warranty. Try sending...

    I took an assault climbing course while I was a Marine and I've never seen a Prussik tied like they have in that thread. 1st when you clip in you should never be clipped in on the knot. The knot should be offset from where it wraps around the main line. 2nd the knot to join the Prussik rope...

    Sitka

    Take a look at Pnuma outdoors. Their stuff matches and beats the quality of Sitka at better prices and a lifetime warranty. My cold weather system is Thick merino wool socks Oversized danner boots Merino thermal pants I bought off amazon Tenacity pants (thinking of buying the insulator pants...
