genepires Posted September 9, 2012 Posted September 9, 2012 (edited) One of double ropes that I use for rock climbing has the sheath worn through at around the 6m mark. (was a 50m rope) If you want it for some glacier travel or something, it is yours if you come by and pick it up. It is a 8.5mm by 44m (roughly) and about 10 years old. The rest of the rope is fine but old. Good enough for glacier travel but not rock climbing worthy. In monroe. Wrong forum...my bad Edited September 9, 2012 by genepires Quote
Coldfinger Posted September 9, 2012 Posted September 9, 2012 Why not weave it into a rug? Not sure it sounds sound enuf for anything else age wise.... Quote

genepires Posted September 9, 2012 Author Posted September 9, 2012 (edited) Why not weave it into a rug? Not sure it sounds sound enuf for anything else age wise.... I gots enough crap around the house. last thing I need a rope rug that will be full of dog hair (good crag dogs I got) and dirt. Yeah it is old but I think it still has some good use as a glacier rope. I would still use it at darrington if the sheath had not worn out at that one point. if it is too old, then no one will ask about it and in the dumpster it goes. Unless someone has a good idea for a needed handline. Maybe on the approach to illusion wall? Edited September 10, 2012 by genepires Quote
