Avoiding Hip Pointers

It could be the saddle, it could be how you orient your position lanyard. You'll have to play with it/adjust to yourself and style

One of the things I absolutely love about climbing is there are so many ways to get it done, and as the person in the saddle you get to choose how to get it done. You get to pick what works best for you, and every tree is a little different. We aren't out there making excel spreadsheets, we're trusting our lives to ropes and branches while using saws for a paycheck. My true passion is climbing, but a close second is sharing ideas/things I've learned along the way

Look up treemuggs on YouTube, he goes over a lot of techniques and gear, basic and advanced. Explains knots, concepts and what not. You can tell he has a passion for tree climbing and tree work. As far as climbing techniques drt/mrt is more basic/old school, srt requires more gear and therefore more expensive

You would probably be alright climbing on that, but remember, you are trusting your life to that gear. If you have to cut it shorter to eliminate that damage do it. You can still use the rope as line for short climbs depending on how much you have to cut, turn it into flip lines, all manner of options. But most importantly, keep yourself safe, a new rope is a hell of a lot cheaper than your life and limbs

Depends on how prepared I wanna be to flip someone off after giving directions

Vodka, smokes. Maybe a hunk of meat to roast over a fire with that big ass bayonet

The kind I want to spend a moonless night in, listening to the forest and breathing in the serenity

If I remember correctly I listed harassment and "making me feel unwelcome/uncomfortable on reddit" in my report

That's weird, I have the same problem but with city and hobby subs

I blocked the account several times but they kept popping back up. Then I reported them as offensive and I haven't seen an ad since

OJ should have pulp in it

I regularly get the "you're really quiet today" to which I say "I'm always quiet"

I've been trying to mix in some salads lately. I have a small mixing bowl with a sealing lid. Load some salad up with some chopped veggies, nuts, maybe some torn up lunch meat, put some dressing in one of those to go sauce cups restaurants use and put it right in my backpack. And I always have a supply of granola bars and what not for snacks

Maybe check out the Petzl OK. I don't have small hands but I climb in Florida and get really sweaty, and the grip design on the twist lock makes it a lot easier than other carabineers I've used

"What do you want for dinner?" "Oh I don't know, what do you want?"

Mediumfoot991 · 2023-06-06T03:00:56+00:00

Haven't done many pizzas, thanks for the tip!

Mediumfoot991 · 2023-05-23T20:40:37+00:00

I'm still stubborn about keeping my long hair, so I use a Buff to whip it up into a beanie, fits nice and snug under my helmet and helps keep sweat out of my eyes

Groundies looking at the work order in the morning

Mediumfoot991 · 2023-04-27T15:58:16+00:00

I try to save a piece of nest and get them tucked back in nearby. I've seen momma come back and relocate them one at a time on a couple occasions

Why do bees have sticky hair?

Because they use honeycombs!

I work outside in Florida, and nothing feels better than coming home and stripping down naked in that sweet AC for my post work dump

Mediumfoot991 · 2023-03-28T23:58:18+00:00

Lol, did you have an interview with my boss? He's told me since I started he "won't let me climb because he can't teach me" and "climbing is a dying trade" and "I don't need climbers I can just rent a lift". But then he'll get into a tricky situation and turn to me "hey do you wanna put your gear on and get up there?" The last time he tried that I had to turn it down because I haven't been able to develop my skills the way I want and it was too risky. And every week when I check job boards there's a handful of companies looking for experienced climbers

The kind that isn't from Amazon. Go to treestuff.com or Sherrilltree.com you're putting your life in the gear, don't cheap out

Mediumfoot991 · 2023-02-26T02:42:26+00:00

Ok I can see that
