wow! we missed it by 5 days! i would think that the Hitch Hiker cant be far behind. does the work climb require double rope? i would love to see srt allowed for the work climb.

5 days! This will make aerial rescue and (theoretical) work climb much more fun. As for work climb, even through they always pick big perfect trees that favor ddrt, I'm still gonna use my wrench. Are there rules for leaving gear in the tree? Redirects everywhere! Time to start training.

Looks awesome. You get a 30 point bonus if you can throw a line in that tree.
