| May 1, 2013 at 12:04 | comment | added | STW | Thanks for all the input David, I kept them together as the first two questions influenced the third, and they're all related to "where can I tie what?". Thanks for the book recommendations, too--I'll look into them. | |
| Apr 30, 2013 at 18:45 | comment | added | DavidR | Something else occurs to me - it seems like you have a series of basic questions on setting up a rappel. Do you own a climbing book, like this: amazon.com/Rock-Climbing-Anchors-Comprehensive-Mountaineers/dp/… or this: amazon.com/Rock-Climbing-Mastering-Mountaineers-Outdoor/dp/… ? I forget which book covers which topics, and don't have my copies with me. But, I think you should get a book on trad climbing, and read it (and re-read it). :) | |
| Apr 30, 2013 at 18:40 | comment | added | DavidR | FWIW, I think this friend you climbed with gave you a string of incorrect advice. These are common mistakes, so its possible this is just what someone told her once. :( | |
| Apr 30, 2013 at 18:40 | comment | added | DavidR | There are a couple of questions here. Could you split them into a question that says "Can I girth hitch my belay loop?" and "do I run my rappel carabiner through both tie-in points?" FWIW, the answer is "no" to both. | |
| Apr 30, 2013 at 18:34 | comment | added | DavidR | Did I answer your question? I don't understand what you mean by "halving the rope". | |
