Abigail ScottBy Abigail Scott
I'm Abigail Scott, an author, adventurer, and mother of three. When I'm not navigating the beautiful chaos of motherhood, you can find me tackling the turbulent waters as a professional whitewater kayaker or scaling impressive rock faces as a climbing guide. The rush of adrenaline, whether from kayaking or climbing, is a feeling I cherish deeply. But the thrill doesn't stop there; I capture the breathtaking allure of nature through my lens as a professional photographer. And when I'm not submerged in the wild, my software engineering skills amplify my outdoor pursuits, allowing me to harness technology in unique ways. Through my writings, whether articles or blog posts, I share not just my adventures but my heart, hoping to spark a flame of inspiration in others to break boundaries and experience the world's wonders.

ATC - Alpine Guide

ATC - Alpine Guide

Description

The ATC - Alpine Guide Alpinists are passionate about rappelling, belaying, and using the ATC's guide mode. That's why Black Diamond has created a lighter and more compact version of its classic belay device. The new Black Diamond ATC - Alpine Guide is specially designed to accommodate skinnier ropes, making alpine climbing with twin ropes easier than ever before.

But don't worry, the handling remains just as exceptional as the original device. The Black Diamond ATC - Alpine Guide offers the same level of precision and control, while being specifically adapted for use with narrower ropes.

Details:

  • Black Diamond's classic belay device, now optimized for alpine climbing
  • Supports rope diameters of 6.9 - 9mm, perfectly suited for 8.1 - 8.5mm ropes
  • Offers multiple friction modes for both belaying and rappelling
  • Features a guide mode that allows for auto-block top rope belays at anchors
  • Includes an auto-block release hole that accepts small carabiners

Specs

Type tube, auto-blocking Rope Diameter 6.9 - 9mm. Manufacturer Warranty 1 year.
