Do I need more than just a rope to climb?

[QUOTE="EchoRomeoCharlie, post: 8195887, member: 161310"] The answer is yes. You can climb trees with just a rope. You can tie a rope into a make shift harness. You can climb on a closed Blakes hitch over a natural crotch using the hip thrust technique. You don't absolutely need a carabiner either. I did it when I was teaching myself about tree climbing before I had any real gear. You can definitely climb trees...even very tall ones with just a rope. I wouldn't advise it for tree work...but you can do it. [/QUOTE]
