I'm planning to do some very simple caving and canyoning with a 9 years old boy.
While he is capable of using a descender and ascenders quite well, I still prefer him to have an additional backup.
Is it an acceptable setup to run an additional static rope from his harness through a pulley at the top station to a belay device on myself?
Will it allow raising or lowering him in case he messes something up with his gear and stuck midway, or am I missing something?
