Happy New Year!
I'm planning a trip down Nettle to do Crumble and Beza.
I've not been down Nettle for almost 30 years and I didn't rig it back then either.
I'm trying to establish accurate rope lengths required as the DCA rigging guide and an old CCPC rigging guide differ somewhat.
DCA rope lengths for the trip are:- 35,35,20,5,50 + 20 to the bottom of 'the Shakes'
CCPC rope lengths for the same trip are:- 28,35,16,4,40,46 + 18
Basically I'm trying to find out an accurate rope length to the re-belay below 'the Sentry Box' (35 or 28?) and what's needed for Crumble/Beza (50 or 40+46?!)
Past experience shows that the DCA guide proves to be quite generous with rope lenghts, but there's a major difference between the two guides for Crumble/Beza.
Any info would be appreciated
