In this episode Rich and Adolfo discuss what makes an anchor bombproof in canyoneering. We explore the differences between rock climbing anchors and canyoneering anchors, emphasizing the need for canyoneering anchors to be more secure due to the use of static ropes. We discuss factors that affect anchor strength, such as fall factor, mechanical advantage, and vector forces. We also address the concept of marginal anchors and how to make them bomber, including using soft starts, sequencing, and employing mechanical advantage. We touch on the importance of knowing the characteristics of different trees and rocks for anchor placement. The conversation concludes with a discussion on the use of bolts in canyons and the importance of proper bolting techniques.
