I was thinking extending runners for cams and nuts. They can still be around your chest. They look easy to deal with. It’s interesting as an anchor, looks easy to equalize and I suspect it’s redundant. Mostly though I was thinking for extending cam placements.

I love Aretes and exposed walls. I prefer long multi pitch, but around the 5.7 - 5.9 range so I can enjoy and not stress and waste all my energy early. I play the long game at my age and injuries.

I joined 2 outdoor climbing clubs, Wasatch Mountain Club and Ogden Outdoor Climbers. They post weekly climbs and anyone is welcome to come and climb. We go places where you can lead, top rope, sport and trad. It typically has a little bit of everything and 5.7 - 5.13. Everyone has been super cool and egos are checked at the door and left behind. Sometimes I just want to top rope harder routes and not stress clipping draws. Everyone is happy to belay everyone. They also have lot’s of free clinics and trips to amazing climbing in Utah and surrounding states. This area is EPIC!!!

Live in Northern Utah. I climb indoor at The Front in Ogden. I have about 200 outdoor climbs within 20 minutes of my house. Indoors I do 5.10 -5.11 and outdoor I like to lead 5.8 - 5.10. The 5.8’s feel much much harder outdoors. I prefer Sport multi pitch, but working on leading trad comfortably. Winter is coming so getting all my outdoor in, debating on ice climbing this winter.

So much fun Mike and you killed it. Can’t wait to climb next, we will get a picture of that.
