Rope for Alpine Sierra.
Looking to purchase a useful rope for some of my summer checklist: Palisades, Clarence King, etc. Last summer I did a bunch of Class 3 and looking to get more technical. Until now I've only solo'd things. I rock climb infrequently so I know my ropes, just not sure what to buy for what I'll mostly be doing: summer mountaineering with one partner. Any Ideas? I'm inclined to get a 60m single. 9.8 or something I can use at the crag or should I get something short and thin?
Bonus question, what kind of rack do you guys use on Class 4 sierra if any?
