I pretty much rack whatever the pitch, climb, or system might demand. In general I rack on my harness, but I always carry a dedicated modified runner (A 24" nylon runner with one section taped down, where gear can be clipped too /out without getting caught) that can be used as a gear sling or as an emergency sling in a pinch; can decide on the fly (belay station) to whether to re-rack onto sling or harness. If not in use i usually just cram it into my pocket. In general front right loop: cams in front (each on own biner), then 1/2 set of nuts in rear front left loop: cams in front (each on own biner), then 1/2 set of nuts in rear right rear loop: trad draws stacked, 2 ovals, nut tool with 5mm cord sling left rear loop: trad draws stacked, 2 lockers, atc haul loop: 8 foot mammut 10mm sling wound around a DMM pearshaped biner Shoulder: depending on climb, i move anywhere from 2-8 trad draws into extended from over my shoulder or none at all (generally do not like to have slings over shoulder) edited: for my continuing retardation in the english language
