Product Description

Slightly oversized for hooking larger edges and flakes than a Cliffhanger, the Grappling Hook’s relatively flat throw allows it to fit in tighter spots than most hooks and its wide bipod base is remarkably stable even on small edges.

Specs

Throw: 1.59" 40 mm
Length: 3" 76.2 mm
Weight: 67 g (2.4 oz)

""You cannot stay on the summit forever; you have to come down again. So why bother in the first place? Just this: What is above knows what is below, but what is below does not know what is above. One climbs, one sees. One descends, one sees no longer, but one has seen. There is an art of conducting oneself in the lower regions by the memory of what one saw higher up. When one can no longer see, one can at least still know."" --Rene Daumal
