When do climbers replace their gear? wires-cams... 4-Aug-2003 At 1:52:36 PM Megan

Speaking of harnesses, when do people retire them? What makes you decide it's time for a new one? I've never come across a story of a harness failing in a fall or anything, but does anyone know of this actually happening? I've been climbing on my harness for 2 years now, often climbing at least once a week, and with a total of at least a couple of months of outdoor trips where I'm in the harness most of the day. On the other hand, I haven't had a huge number of lead falls in that time. The harness still looks fine, what's made me wonder about this is probably just the fact that I managed to win a harness a couple of weeks ago, and I'm wondering what to do with it.
