We’re you once a NooB?

Nope, never a n00b...yet.

I was ejected from the womb a fully-sponsored, 5.13+/WI5/M8/A5+ hardman and have been regressing ever since...

Rather than noobiness, I thought this was advanced trundling

I counted four pieces of webbing and one cord connected to six anchor points. Don't most people stop at three points?

This is one good reason why I would never join a SAR Team....

people standing on the rope
people on the wrong side of the rope
people holding the rope

That's a great start, but you are still missing some. But if you aren't a local there is 1 you might miss.

yeah, there's probably some local stuff i wouldn't know about. i do know they don't need half that gear they're carrying. i count at least 2 pairs of trekking poles that could've been stashed down low (that's what we did).

i thought about that too, but i wasn't sure. also, i don't think there's a need to kick steps in either. looks like there's already a good path.
