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.

Introducing the Ultralight TCU by Metolius - Experience the ultimate in lightweight and reliable trad gear with the revolutionary Ultralight TCU. Crafted with precision and innovation, this cam is designed to enhance your climbing experience without weighing you down.
The standout feature of the Ultralight TCU is the groundbreaking Direct Axle Technology, which optimally places each lobe close together. This ingenious design not only reduces weight but also enables effortless placement in tricky, shallow, and narrow crevices. Don't let challenging placements hold you back; conquer them with ease using the Ultralight TCU.
Metolius has taken camming units to the next level by incorporating three wide lobes for superior grip on the rock. Unlike traditional TCUs or even four-lobed designs, each lobe of the Ultralight TCU features a cam stop that functions passively like a stopper. This innovative addition enhances stability and gives you the confidence you need during your climbs. Plus, the CNC machined construction ensures unmatched precision, eliminating any room for error during placement.
Featuring a durable U-shaped double stem that remains highly flexible, the Ultralight TCU offers optimal control during placement and removal. Whether you're setting it or your partner is cleaning it, this cam delivers the reliability you need. Additionally, each cam comes with a color-coded Monster sling for quick identification on the wall, making your climbing experience even more seamless. The Range Finder feature on sizes 2 - 4 provides valuable information on the optimal range available for your placement, ensuring maximum safety and efficiency.
