Welcome to /r/climbing's Daily Discussion Thread, a thread for questions and comments everyone wants to make but don't warrant their own thread.

Have a question about what color carabiner speaks to your soul? Wondering how chalk buckets work? Really proud of that thing you did? Awesome! Post that noise here.

Default sort is set to new.
