    Would like to change my address on my profile. Can’t figure it out. Can someone point me to the right spot?

    Jeepers, that was easy! How I couldn’t figure that out on my own is a mystery. Thank you very much! And for the record, I’m now in Ashland, Oregon. If there are any climbers- professional or recreational that like to climb recreationally, I’d enjoy meeting you and climbing together. I came...

    Hello. I’ve moved and want to update my location. I can’t seem to figure out where to do that. If I touch my location in my profile, it opens maps. Can you point me in the right direction? Thank you. David

    Phil, It’s not under that kind of tension. Merely enough to keep it on your shoulder when climbing. It’s probably at 20% of its stretch capacity. It’s the stretch difference of bending your legs for the next ascending movement.

    Hello Camdo, I’m not nearly as experienced as most on this forum…so take this for what it’s worth. I simply have an elastic rope and clip that goes from the back of my harness, over my shoulder, and on to the HHxF. Sometimes it slips off when I don’t want it to, but it works well. The...

    I’m not sure. I didn’t stop to explore. But, there are many.

    Falling Madrones….

    Hello all, I hope the winter is treating everyone well. This year I moved to Ashland, OR. Some time back I inquired about recreationally climbing these beautiful trees. I did not, as the consensus seemed to be that they might be stout trees, but their bark…or the lack thereof makes them...

    Southsoundtree, Thank you. One local arborist who is going to take down a tree that is leaning on my home here echoed your thought about them bark. He said, “slick when wet. You won’t be doing any limb walking!”

    Cambium Protection…

    Good morning, all. So I am a recreational climber. When I first started, I was using a 1/2 conduit friction saver. They work terrific, but now I’m climbing with a sewn eye on each end of my rope, so the conduit won’t work for me. I could get a 3/4”, but before I do, any recommendation on a...

    Petzl Sequoia MRS/DRT Size 1 - Care to swap for your Size 0?

    Hello. I’m a recreational climber with a size 1 Sequoia. I think I would be happier with a 0, as I’m quite thin. My size 1is in near perfect condition. Do you have a 0 size in similar condition that you would like to swap with me? Thanks, David

    How to organize the Teufelberger treeMOTION light Harness

    Hello again. I think it would be cool for anyone interested to take a good photo of your harness, all rigged up the way you like it. Perhaps ask one of your colleagues to snap a pic when you suit up. Then share it here. It seems that there’s interest, and veterans are teaching and learning.
