Metolius Alpine Aider 3/4in in Blue 4 Step - Size: 60in

The Oz Quickdraw is Black Diamond's lightest draw for clipping stoppers in the alpine, screws on ice routes, or bolts at the crag. Despite a ridiculously low weight, the Oz still has friendly clipping features, like hoods over the gate to eliminate snags while cleaning. The super skinny Dynex sling sports a StraitJacket to stabilize the rope clipping carabiner.

The Oval Carabiner is Black Diamond's original biner for aid climbing, and this 3-Pack is essential for any big wall rack. Its uniform, symmetrical shape has a large carrying capacity for loads of stoppers, slings, and more. These are Black Diamond's only oval carabiners to come with a snag-free keylock nose. It's kind of like an "old meets new" thing.

The oval is one of the first shapes that carabiners came in, and it's still the best option when you're racking a lot of gear for alpine, traditional, and multi-pitch climbs. This Oval Keylock Carabiner is Black Diamond's only oval carabiner to come with a snag-free keylock nose. It's kind of like an "old meets new" thing.

From extra-long slings to anchor systems to a campground slack line, look no further than a 30-foot length of versatile BlueWater Tubular Climb-Spec Webbing. The 1-inch-wide webbing provides superior strength, durability, and flexibility when compared to standard military-spec webbing, making it an ideal choice for climbing applications.

When backing up our rappel system, we reach for the BlueWater Ropes Sewn Prusik Loop. The cord ends are sewn together with strong 277 polyester thread by a precision computer-controlled machine and then reinforced with a plastic cover to boost abrasion resistance. The sewn ends minimize bulk and weight on our harness and ensure there is no knot that could come loose, all while continuing to meet strength requirements.

Black Diamond's Viper Ice Tool is an all-around axe for any terrain from nearby crags to faraway alpine climbs. Updates for this season include a superlight, hydroformed shaft that extends through the grip for a more responsive feel, and a beefed up Titan Pick for durability and a reliable, versatile performance. You can switch out the Titan Pick with any Black Diamond picks, adzes, and hammers thanks to the modular head. The adjustable FlickLock pommel slides up and down the shaft to offer more grip options on steep climbs or low-angle slabs.

The wide rope bearing surface, clipability, and deep basket of the Superfly Evo make these carabiners a must-have for the weight and performance conscious. They are large enough for gloved use and feature great action, all in a weight that can shave significant weight off your rack. Updated with a snag-free keylock nose making for an even easier to use lightweight locker.

Nothing eases our worries while rappelling better than a prusik loop backing up our belay, and Blue Water's Sewn Prusik Loop provides a securely sewn loop for a stronger, securer setup than an unsewn piece of cord.

To drop some grams but keep strength, we swap out some beefy 'biners with the Metolius F. S. Mini II Carabiner. The compact size retains full strength and features a larger gate opening to also retain clipping ease. On traverses and vertical routes, the wire gate and flared nose reduce shuttering as the spine scrapes the wall, letting us trust our gear, so we can focus on the beta.

A blustery campsite isn't fun for anyone, so make sure you have the essentials tied down with some BlueWater Pre Cut Accessory Cord. This multipurpose cord works wonders for rigging tarps and shelters, and its four millimeter diameter won't balk at approaching storms.

Don't waste time cutting up a spool of cord with a hot knife, blowtorch, and tape measure when BlueWater has already done the work for you with its Pre Cut Accessory Cord - 6mm. This versatile cord lets you tie down your camp gear in the event of an alpine storm, and its burly, six millimeter diameter is strong enough to connect to your back-up belay anchor in a pinch.

You've been scoping some sweet sport lines, and it's time to bust out the hardware. The Metolius Anchor Chain is here to make sure you can relive the glorious topout time and again. Various diameters on this 44-inch chain help you accommodate and equalize a variety of anchor setups.

BlueWater's one-inch Tubular Climbing-Spec Webbing comes in 100 yards so you can replace all the junky anchors across the canyons and still have enough webbing left for highlines.
