In reply to:
These experiences, widely-spaced as they were, convinced me to absolutely never use a tag line that couldn't be used as a lead rope in any place that was even a little remote. But once you are dragging a leadable tag line, you're better off with double half-ropes, which is what I settled on for many additional reasons.

Thanks for that rgold - great advice
