"Go to" gear

Post by Jay »

A question for all you Red River Traddies: When it comes down to the wire, and you simply need to place a worthwhile piece of gear, what's your go to piece, and I don't mean "whatever fits best in the rock where you're at"?

I mean what are the one or two pieces of gear you can't seem to leave the ground without? For me, it's all about the brown tricam, and the #1 Camalot. I seem to ALWAYS find a way to place them on a route...

Yellow Metolius 3 cam. It goes everywhere.

Agreed yellow TCU just seems to fit. the only down side is the trigger is the same size as the crack it fits in allowing for difficult cleaning if your not careful.
