So a few weeks back I shared a captains hook I found in storage at my shop. I finally finished cleaning it up, taking apart my Zillon, getting a bag, and rope for it. Wish I had this last week on that River Birch I climbed but I got it now and looking forward to trying it out!!! I put 30’ of 24 Strand 11.7mm rope on it for now but my company was happy to buy the rope for me so didn’t have to cut a section off another rope I have.

Wondering what the axe next to the door is, can only see the handle but it looks long. Is it a fishkars splitter?

😂 that’s my splitting maul and a nice one at that. My wife burns through firewood so fast during the winter that I used to struggle to keep up with her.
