Climbing gear for caving?
Posted: Jan 30, 2014 10:59 am
Hey everyone!
I'm new here, just starting to try to get into caving. I've been an avid climber for more than half of my life, so my first obvious question, can I use the same gear? Is there a reason I shouldn't use my climbing harness/helmet/hardware underground? The only thing I can think of is that the harness might get a bit of excess ware on it, but that's it.
Any thoughts?
