    What Do You Carry While Climbing - Basic Gear?

    I keep a fly reel in a bag in the bucket. I'll climb with it if I see I'm going to need it. I have a Mag Throwbag that I'll take up if it's a dense tree and no room to boomerang it back easily.

    I have a couple of those wedges. I usually leave them in the bucket. It's nice to be able to tie them off so they don't fall after every use.

    What Do You Carry While Climbing - Basic Gear?

    As little as possible for each job. But I'll carry a Silky strapped to my leg most of the time. Even if I don't think I'll need it, it will usually come in handy. For reaching the tail of a rope etc. I started wearing a camel back water pouch a couple years ago. Now I won't leave the ground...
