Trango

Passport Ascender

Just like international trips, you won't make up big walls very far without the help up Trango's Passport Ascender. This ascender is surprisingly light and compact for stowing inside haul bags when it's time to free a pitch or twelve. The large hand hold has a rubber grip to give your tired hands a break while you jug, and the low-profile thumb catch stays out of the way so you don't accidentally unlock the rope. Two clip-in points help you distinguish your personal clip from your leg loop's clip.
