    Ascending Rappel Ropes 101
    Having to re-climb doubled rappel ropes is one of climbing’s most taxing situations. In my 30-something years of climbing, I’ve only had to do this twice, and both times were epic.

    Medical Advice

    Feet: Gout and Pseudogout
    Several years ago I attempted the Southwest Couloir route on Mount Huntington in Alaska in some oversized Koflach boots. After I'd led many pitches of steep ice my left toe began cramping and hurting so badly I could no longer frontpoint and was basically climbing the last pitches with only my right foot.

    Training Tips

    I have seen quite a few forearm strengtheners on the market. Is any one better than the other in terms of results?
