Curious as to what grade you have to be climbing to have all quickdraws pre-placed. Youtube videos show most really hard climbs have the gear already there. If I do it on a grade 10 I look like an idiot. If the top climbers say the climb is too difficult to carry carabiners and quickdraws, can I say the 10 is too hard without doing the same? Is it equivalent to the fixed ladder on the Hillary Step, or catching a taxi for part of a marathon, because I was too tired to run it all? |
