Are you climbing DRT or SRT?
I tried DRT but didn’t like it. I climb single stick or using the platform from my self climber or SRT or a combination.
After finding myself standing in my ring of steps looking down at my stick hanging sideways partway down the tree one day, I realized climbing with a 30’ tether would afford me options in a situation like that. The natural progression was to rappel down and that lead immediately to doing SRT to move up the rope.
My last couple of hunts involved single stick with small SRT sections to get up. I then leave my ring of steps and stick up the tree and rap down for the night. In the morning it’s a quick SRT up in the dark.
I plan on scouting out some trees for next season and prepping them with paracord for pure SRT setups.
