Thanks again all.

Good point about dynamic rope muki

Would love a silent partner...will save my pennies : )

Fair point about inefficient use of second prussik - this was added recently just because the system was working smoothly enough to allow more redundancy but yes, a second rope would certainly be a good approach.

I do need to add rope protectors also.

Good feedback on overkill - the upside is its robust! (theoretically)

M9 - I dont suppose you could sketch it out? - and thanks for the tip on the tail - I need to add that for sure.

egosan - thanks I need to look into the stripping issue.

In some ways its nice to climb self belay but I am working hard on finding partners. I am fortunate enough to have lots of time to climb at the mo and its great to have so much rock near Launceston...now, if all the local climbers would just stop working....
