Mountain Hardwear Sub Zero Down Jacket - Men's
May 29, 2009
its primarily a warm layer jacket
and though when you first buy it it may shed slight drizzle due to a nikwax type spray coating , it will soon rub / wash out . And if you've ever got anything down wet you'll know what its like to dry. It will also become less effective once dry

Edelweiss Ally Single Climbing Rope - 10.3mm
January 16, 2009
Rock climbing ropes don't break (with a few weird exceptions). All climbing ropes that are UIAA certified are safe to climb with. In shopping for a rope you need to consider impact force (this rope is 9kN which is about average), elongation, weight, diameter (roughly correlates with longevity and durability), features (like middle marks, bipattern coloration, etc), and handling. Don't worry about "how much it will hold".In terms of holding falls the things to rely on are . 1 . The competence of your belayer . 2. the quality of your anchor placement (both when leading and top ropeing ) and 3 . the distance between your anchors ( when leading )
