Nice work looks a great climb n day for ya, hmm so when did the spurs start to bring the hurt n thats a gutsy pulley rig n cut position on the side head, tis sure you has it all sorted thou pic's made me n old climber a wee nervous, anyhoo well done.

I was you 30+ years back Sandy n Bayside was my work playground its all nice nuthin to big but plenty of tight spots to use some tricks. ha we used to leave em the stump for a pot plant.

Thanks for the pics.

Seriously, cut the scarf first then tie up, using mouth/teeth not the best.

hello, was a gd day for a climb blue sky, ocean views. My spurs have lambswool inserts(nothing too hitech) which give me good padding so dont get sore too often when using spurs.
Always pretty good work in bayside, good confined removals, and nice pruning jobs.

Point taken about rope in mouth trick, not too smart.

I didn't even see the rope in mouth hold until you pointed it out.
