@Howsie: Ha, Bryce does love to sell you things. Note he is selling the Aspiring anchor chain - NZ-made, not Metolius, so buy it. They really are fiendishly convenient, but combine that with a spectra cordelette (he'll sell you one of those too) or a pair of abseil bolts and suddenly there is nothing dynamic in the setup except your body. Ouch. Keep the slack out of the system... |
