The most important piece of gear
|
If you had to pick the most important piece of gear for any type of climbing, what would it be? Or, what piece of gear most defines climbing to non-climbers? |

rope....LOL Close runner up is the carabiner. |

A big pair. |

good educated (sometimes lucky) judgement |
|
Most important piece of gear FOR climbers= Your brain! Crack a book!! |

Laptop with WiFi |

My brain, which says the last piece I placed is my most important piece of gear; at least until I place its replacement. |
|
My belayer. |
|
Beer |

I'd have to agree with the brain walking by a piece of rock a non-climber wouldn't think twice whereas a climber automatically thinks: can I climb it? |
