    zigzag

    Nice, thanks for posting. I'm curious to see what it's like around 5 degrees F with a bunch of sugary or sticky snow on the line. If it runs smoothly in those conditions it would be much nicer than a cord on cord set up. Take it out after the Noreaster!

    Cold weather - under layers

    Florida! Wa! x2 on the neck gaitor and x2 on the UA Coldgear. I really like the UA for a base layer because it's got that plastic liner on the inside on the bottom of top that tucks way in and grips on the outside of your longies so when you're reaching up the frigid air doesn't get a...

    why a big eye on a climbing line?

    One good reason to have a long eye is to allow the splice to run through your center ring when running the O-rig configuration. The tight eye ends up getting bent too much when it rounds the ring. I don't know about the other stuff, though.

    life expectancy for eye 2 eyes?

    My rule of thumb is if I'm thinking about it, it's time. Got lots of other stuff to think about while climbing.

    Another accident makes the news

    I know, I know! It *would* be near impossible to sit there and wait for fire trucks...but with that piece of wood that looks to be unsecured wedged in there how would one go about proceeding on an AR. I'm not sure I know the best way on that situation. Any thoughts?

    Another accident makes the news

    Yikes. That would have been a very dicey AR scenario. Dangerous for the rescuer. Maybe too dangerous. ?

    Cherry root plate failure

    Wow. Looks like that SGR was below grade from the pics. Could you tell how far below grade it may have been?

    Canopy Camping - Minnesota

    That is a sweet set up. I bet the Beach Rolly could be used like that - wheel your gear in and then hoist the Rolly...? I'm up for some canopy camping. Let's get something going. We can talk tomorrow at the SRT workshop? Cheers! Rebecca

    best soil sampling in north east

    I used to send soil samples to CLC Labs in Ohio. Then I thought, how silly to send them that far when I can send to the soil lab at the U of Minnesota. So I tried that. But now I'm sending them to Ohio again. They have soil sample bags to keep in your vehicle, a clear and easy to follow...

    Climbing in CT

    Hey Allissa, Welcome to the Buzz. I'm in Minneapolis, willing to get together for climbing. I know it helps to climb with other women, especially when you are starting out. My family is in eastern WI, so depending on where you are, that could work on a road trip. If you would like, either email...
