Inspired by a sad story, I'd like to host a monthly self-rescue get together in Bellingham, WA. Learn more by following my thread above.

Good on you for setting this up. I don't live in the area, but I think that more of this type of thing should be going on. It's scary how many multi-pitch climbers think 1.) this won't happen to me cause I'm careful 2.) I'll just figure it out if it happens. Having this stuff dialed literally can mean the difference between life and death for someone.

That is a great idea. I have taken a course in self-rescue, but don't seem to find time to practice the skills. I highly doubt everything would magically come back to me under a high stress situation. I am going to move it back to the top of my priority list. Thanks for the reminder.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
