    Is crane work safer....than?

    Many picks from the tops of even healthy trees need to be strapped at a place that is above any reasonable canopy anchor tie in. Asking a climber to go above a canopy anchor to set a crane strap high enough that it will be butt heavy is unsafe. An internal document on canopy anchor selection...

    Well done reduction

    Could be a silver I'll have to go back and look. I think it's DIY with a JLG or maybe that guy from down south took a vacation. Trees in background were not topped like that. I see lots of chopped up maples around here tho.

    HTP question

    I read a little on some rec climbing forums about climbing with this stuff, i think they were using mechanical devices. Might try some 6mm hitch cord or a hollow braid like ice tail on the wrench. Good luck!

    I have everything to do this except the magnet. What is your source? A neat way traverse without a stick or grapple.

    HTP question

    It's terrible hitch cord. Going to build a MA setup with it. Rescue practice, tension slacklines and ziplines, haul gear. Now I just have to round up some pulleys and skinny hitch cord

    HTP question

    You are right on all accounts. I thought for some reason there were more/some 100 poly hitch cords out there. A quick search let me down. Bad hand, low heat resistance, slippy cover. Sounds like this isn't going very far off the ground!

    HTP question

    It's 100% polyester so I think the heat resistance would ok (especially for a footlock loop or lanyard hitch). I agree with you about being slippy. I will try it out low and slow and report back.

    HTP question

    Just getting into srt so the basal anchor is a good idea. I also need a neck teather and a saw lanyard so that's good too. Can someone explain why this wouldn't be good hitch cord?

    HTP question

    I have 35 feet of Sterling HTP, can I use it as hitch cord? If not any ideas on what to do with it would be appreciated.
