A series of quick tips on best practices. Most have links to my detailed articles if you want to learn more. This post covers: anchor hooks, extending a quickdraw, using a rebelay to protect a fixed rope, “alpine equalization” with cams, cautions on block leading, “casting” your rappel rope, and how anchor hardware can twist your rope. (Last 3 tips are for Premium Members.)

There’s a whole lot missing from this story about how Sarah Larcombe’s mental recovery and prep for return to competition.The headline before clicking through is “After Sarah Larcombe fell off Arapiles, healing her bones was just the beginning”. The story makes it clear that mental recovery is important. But the rest of the text is about the physical aspects.#climbing #mhhttps://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-12-29/sarah-larcombe-paraclimbing-injury-arapiles-world-championships/106018328

Does your gear have the "BlueSign approved" label on it? My local gear shop put out an article about what it actually means. https://www.mec.ca/en/article/bluesign-spotlight-at-mec
