Grateful to @bishopclimbingrangers for modeling genuine stewardship for the land. They offer creative ways to keep your pups in range plus my all time favorite pro: the little pink tricam! Little pink tricam Who do I love thee? Let me count the ways! #Repost @bishopclimbingrangers ć»ć»ć» As a community, climbers love the Eastern Sierra. The climbing, camping, and scenery are all world-class. Help us to protect the areaās iconic plant: Sagebrush. 2 Ways you can help: Keep crash pads within delineated areas at the Happys, Sads, Buttermilks, and any other local climbing area. Refrain from tethering your dogs to plants at the crag, which causes damageš¶. The Sage here is fragile and often looks dead but will spring to life with new growth after precipitationš§. Alternative place to tether your dog: The Rocks! Pics 2-6 show a few simple gear anchors: Cams, Nuts, and Tricams (which can act as a Cam or a Nut). Place the gear in a crack in solid rock and use anywhere from 1 to 3 bomber pieces to tether your dog. On a budget? Tricams are relatively inexpensive, versatile, and fit into tight spots that cams will not. Ask a friend for hand-me-downs: Your trad-stoker friend probably has an extra set of cobweb-covered Tricams looking for a new home š·. As always, be considerate of others: donāt place anchors on existing problems or cultural sites. #pinktricam #triharder #traddadz #tradmommy #rockclimbing #bishop #easternsierra #buttermilks #happyboulders #dontcrushthebrush https://www.instagram.com/p/Cmj60YaPjw-67sRrUkUNaBG6DzOhpYCNGU3T4s0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
