New to this. What does TR and PAS stand for? Quick google search didn't turn up the answer. Thanks

Top rope and personal anchor system

Top rope is similar to the sort of setup that you're probably used to seeing in a gym, with a rope running from the climber through an anchor at the top of a climb and back down to the belayer.

"Personal anchor system" is actually a brand name, but the original poster is using it to refer to his improvised system of attaching himself to the anchor while working at the top of the cliff.
