Looking foward to doing it again. I believe it was my first multi pitch. With a 50M rope it was 3 pitches. Last pitch being short. Two years ago I did Ending Crack, 5.7. A great finger to hands crack, but with foot holds on the face. Anyrate, none of the pitches are short enough to rap with one rope, so I'll break out my lightly used but old Mammot 11 for the tag line and bringing up the 3rd. 11mm?? Good lord man, how old is that thing? I just checked their site and they don't even sell them anymore. Around 15 years old, so its only 50M. I got it on sale at REI before I really needed a new rope. Its a dry treated rope and was only lightly used. But at the time I decided a 2nd rope was a good idea. So its in really good shape. However, since its so old I don't lead on it. Since I don't lead on it I don't climb on it, as most of the climbing is lead to an anchor and TR off that. Plus, my brother bought another Mammut dry 50 shortly thereafter. So I really have two hardly used 15 yo 11mm 50M ropes. My origonal rope is a Chounard non dry, way fuzy and well used 50. But I cut into two for mountainiering. Although it only saw a couple of uses at that. I'd get a new rope if I needed a mountain rope now. Anyrate, I'd love to have another 60M Axis, except in blue to contrast with my red one. 15yo???? AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH *runz away* I'd TR it in a heartbeat. Thats it. Tthey are in good shape, not beat up at all, hardly climbed on heavy 11mm. I wouldn't worry about that rope at all. I'd worry about belaying it though. I don't think I've ever even belayed an 11mm outside of some gym ropes, and perhaps 10.5s that've fuzzed out to 11mm. hip belay ftw. Ben der done dat. I used a Lowe Tuber for years with the old fuzy 11 though.

DDT was creating redundant threads and stressing the hampster. Deleting the big mans threads would have only been fair.
