I do mostly single pitch, occasional short multi pitch.
I was taught to direct belay the follower originally and is what I always do, either with atc guide or munter.
now I'd like to start using indirect more, and am wondering what are some of the favorite ways you guys like to rig it? Where I climb anchors are often built back from the edge a bit and I do like to be able to keep an eye on the second sometimes.
I'm thinking just stay tied in, clove hitch to carabiner on power point to get me near edge, then belay standing/sitting sideways, from harness w. atc guide (keeping anchor belayer climber in line and no slack between self and anchor).
thank you
