    ZigZag Set up

    It is perfectly within your rights to use the thing upside down with $2 keychain carabiners. I'll hold your beer.

    Bug bites

    I've only been bitten by spiders in the fall/winter when sleeping. I usually wake up the second they crawl on me and the wife was convinced I was crazy, until one night I turned the light on and showed her a 1.5" diameter wolf spider under the covers. For some reason they never bite her...

    Titles for job positions, what's yours??

    I did a lot of work down in the southeast part of the state, on an acreage. The turkey vultures would hunt pigeons and cats all day long. The client only had one cat left, out of 13... an older female, blind in one eye. She would never cross an open expanse of the property, instead she would...

    Titles for job positions, what's yours??

    The coyote poop around here contains a lot of cat fur. Just sayin'.

    Today....

    Never let necessity dictate your purchases of cool stuff. That's a badass piece of equipment. If I had that kind of money, I'd buy that and then figure out a way to justify owning it. Hopefully, something that won't make the wife try to have me committed to an assylum, again.

    Thinking about a mechanical acsender upgrade - but not without testing it

    Well, I'm middleaged (assuming I live to 132) and just had surgery at the end of last month for a bad hernia. They fixed it, but I think I'm done with SRT. Although it's a lot slower and less efficient, MRT is also a lot easier on me. I'm not actually real fast, not quite real slow. Basically, I...

    Srt for heavier climbers

    By any chance, were you in northern California in 1967?

    More re-engineering stuff that shoulda been better made from the get-go

    I'm still using those plastic coffee cans. They're free, practically indestructible, and I can flake the throwline back into them almost as fast as I can those cubes.

    Thinking about a mechanical acsender upgrade - but not without testing it

    I must have at least 4 new or barely used ZigZags laying around here that I should list on Treebay. I'm only going to keep two ZZ setups, and I've already set those two aside. I still think it's the best DdRT device. Unless you're up over 250 lbs. or so...

    Night climb

    If we're not supposed to climb trees at night, then maybe they should stop planting trees so close to those college sorority houses, right?

    Hey, that's some 40kN spaghetti. A testament to my wife's pasta cooking skills. Or, lack thereof.

    DdRT/MRT Setup, Reasonably Priced - - - SOLD - - -

    Yes, but the other end will fit through. Or, you can use an inline-attachable pulley like the Omni-Block ones. That's what I use for MRT, or I install a retrievable anchor from the ground with a throwline through the pulley, and pull the rope up and through the pulley. If I wanted to ascend SRT...

    Whiskey Whiskey Whiskey

    You can stop using that fake ID and false beard, now. The Brit Milah is over, you're of legal age, and the disappointment of finding out that the Tooth Fairy looks a bit like Margorie Traitor Greene will pass with time. Even the numbness that is Columbus will fade as you enter your twilight...
