    ... that's the bit I don't get, with the Tojo there why did'nt y'all just hook a drag chain up onto the Numpty that was injured and just drive away, you would have had him at the top in about 2mins and been off for beers..... ;);):D:D

    It looks like a lot but when you are working as a team and you bring everyone's personal gear into the fold, then it gives you a lot of options. Except for the Terradaptor tripod, everything else is personal gear that each team member carries into the woods for an operation. Each team member with a few carabiners, a couple of pulleys, a few prussic cords and a rope or set of 4s adds up to a lot of gear to use when you finally get to the scene.

    Ill be bringing an extra sked in November to dontate to you all and ditch medicine. Got a list of items from uncle Hugh to be on the look out for but no luck so far.

    Seriously? I was just about to buy a new Sked since Hugh Coffee always has his in use somewhere when we need it for a class.

    Point is, DO NOT donate that sked to Hugh because he doesn't need it. WE NEED IT here for our rope classes. That damn Hugh Coffee has stolen enough gear from fire departments already!

    I tried a terradaptor tripod once in Morocco. Took 3 weeks of antibiotics to clear that up.

    I need to send Trey a Bahco folding saw. He missed his calling as a logger.

    I was afraid he was going to slip and cut a tensioned rope.
