    RDA Crows Nest

    I have the crows nest. I had a slanted scout before that. I really like the crows nest. like you said, I wanted the slant for leaning, but also wanted to be able to stand as well. You definitely can't stand on it like a platform, or even a flat scout, but I can stand. it gave me that little...

    Rappel rope questions

    I used Resc Tech for 2 seasons to rappel. Loved it most of the time. It stores well, easy to work with, and works in the mad rock, even though "out of spec". HOWEVER, when it gets wet, it is NOT a fun ride. I ditched it and went with CIV because of the problems when it gets wet. Just my 2...

    Thanks everyone. challenge met

    How is nobody commenting on the Metal Miller Lite bottle??? I love it! It could very likely have water or tea in it, but I still love seeing it in the pic. (been guilty of enjoying a beer in a saddle a time or two myself! Never while hunting though!) Excellent pic man!

    DIY cinching, retrievable anchor: JRB Cinch

    Thank you for the long and detailed response! I have gone with a rappel ring, and I have encased my carabiner in tubular webbing. I really like a lot of things about the cinch, but I am not enjoying the pull down. It takes quite a bit more work an effort than a regular rappel with a girth...

    DIY cinching, retrievable anchor: JRB Cinch

    @John RB Are there any alternatives to any pieces of this system that are unsafe? For example, if using a quicklink instead of a rappel ring, is there a safety concern with this? are there any safety concerns with using a different sized ring than you use for any given rope. For example, if...
