My favorite part of the climb….
Actually when doing something like this I am thinking about two things. First is how I can't wait to get past this section, and second I hope there's another way down. If there is why didn't I take that way up in the first place?
From what I can find is Eiger final arret. Correct me if I am wrong.

DMM Revolver Locking Carabiner

I probably should be ashamed I didn't know about these. Apparently the DMM Revolver wiregate has been out for awhile. DMM Revolver Locking Carabiner is relatively newer and they both look incredibly awesome and are definitely going on my purchase list. "Fully certified as both a carabiner and pulley."

How to get to the top of the Hill. Or at least try.

The first thought I had when I was asked to write a blurb on getting into Mountaineering was: "I'm not a mountaineer I just getting in... Oh..." The first mountain I climbed was Granite Peak, Montana about six years ago. Since then I have reached the summits of arguably the three most challenging high points in the lower forty-eight. So I still have a good memory of learning the ropes since I'm still not a pro, but at least not a complete novice.
