P84 – Belay Loop update
On page 84, the anatomy of a climbing harness had the belay loop incorrectly identified at the top of the harness. Click to see the updated pages with the correct location.
P211 Quad Anchors – image captions corrected
On page 211, the captions on two images are in the wrong order, identifying the first anchor configuration as “Quad master point set up for top roping”, whereas it should say “Quad master point set up for top belay
with an assisted braking device”; and the second image should have the former caption. Click to see the updated pages with the correct caption order.
