rob Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 (edited) I've read that some people just rap off the castle (and unicorn?) instead of down climbing. What's the rap like? Is a 30m line worth it (and long enough?) or is it not worth the weight? Edited August 22, 2011 by rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yikes Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 I did the Plummer to Unicorn section of the Tatoosh traverse. I didn't feel comfortable enough to summit Castle (loose/chossy) but I had no trouble up and down on Unicorn. The 5th class is brief though exposed.

fas Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 A 30m rope is sufficient for the rap off The Castle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
