As part of its mission to teach the correct fundamentals of climbing, the American Mountain Guides Association (AMGA) has produced this series of instructional videos. The videos cover a range of necessary climbing techniques from belaying, to rappelling and anchoring.
Here, AMGA/IFMGA Mountain Guide Margaret Wheeler demonstrates how to remove and replace old webbing, a.k.a. “tat”, at climbing anchors.
