Thanks, Reg. I should have guessed that you were using the other end of your climbline. Keeping it simple is generally the way to go.

Those are my favorite too, The Gary. They fit well, and last longer than the other latex ones that I've tried. Plus, those prices from PalmFlex are pretty damn good.

Thanks for the vid, Reg. I've never worked in an environment before where a grappling hook would be useful like that, but it's such a cool tool. How long is the second rope that you're using with the hook? Is it basically a second full length climbing line, or do you use a shorter line for...

Damn Ed, that was a nasty one. Serious hit followed by a serious fall.

:lol:

You sure don't want to be in that fallout zone!

What was the average length of stay in camp?

Yes, but for all of our technological advances, some would say we are still living in the Irony Age.

WEAR YOUR SEATBELT!!! It saved me from significant injury in an accident I had when I was a wild young one.

Me too. It can be relaxing work for me, and I enjoy trying to hit the target perfectly with each toss.

That was fairly anti-climactic.

Wasn't too bad until they flopped it. Strumming the power lines like that is seriously risky business. Not to mention the other property damage. And what the heck was that rolling onto the scene after the flop? Buy hey, they saved the maple, so it's all good! And yes, that looked like no...

I don't think I'd qualify to even be Stig's apprentice. :D

Pretty cool! Would be interesting to see some slo mo closeups of felling cuts in action.

Interesting vids Marc-Antoine, thanks for posting those. The double prussic thing is a bit much for my simple mind, but I'm still digging that rollo tube.

That roller tube idea is clever. I'm keeping my eyes out for an old tent pole now. And yes, Ryan, I cringed when I saw the climber carrying his chainsaw horizontally from his saddle. That would drive me crazy.

Nice one! Did you have to climb to set that rope, or were you able to set it from the ground?
