This high-stretch kernmantle rope with dry treatment is designed primarily for rock climbing and mountaineering.

Dry treatment resists moisture absorption and repels dirt, prolonging the life of the rope and reducing weight on snow
9.5mm diameter is light and useful on difficult pitches but is still strong enough to use as a single rope
60-meter length allows longer leads and rappels

Imported.

I bought this rope earlier this year for alpine climbing. I purchased it, during a sale at REI, due to the superdry coat and the sub 10mm size. This 60m rope packs well and isn't very heavy compared to ropes I've owned in the last 10 years. After using it for a week in the Olympics I have no complaints. The dry finish worked not only to keep it fairly dry but also helped in keeping it cleaner.

I have one for more than 3 years and used it for all kind of mountaineering.
Itīs lighter than others and I very much like the stable handling.
Even though there has been "heavy" use there are not to many signs of usage.
The coating/impregnation helps a lot when going for ski-mountaineering or crossing glaciers in the summer. The rope stys dry.
High price, but definitely woth it!
