See all the details, variations, and cost breakdown here. Normally, I publish a complete version of my articles for my Premium Members, and a shortened version of articles on the public part of my website.

Inspiration and peer review for this article is from Kevin Maliczak, aka ClimbingTaiwan. Connect on his Instagram @climbingtaiwan and YouTube. Thanks to Evan Wisheropp for peer review of this article. Connect with Evan on Instagram, @evanwisheropp https://www.alpinesavvy.com/blog/rethinking-single-pitch-anchors
