Secured Climb - Permission
The kit allows secured climbing where bare hands would be unreasonable. When a valid safety line is anchored, an ordinary failed climbing Test does not automatically become an uncontrolled fall; apply an appropriate lesser consequence unless the anchor also fails.
The last clip closes; the climber follows the line back to its anchor.
