Cora Hanson, AMGA Single Pitch Instructor
This is the accessory cord I carry on multi-pitch climbs to replace tat at rappel anchors, or to make my own emergency rappels or prussiks if needed.

Spencer Huffman, Rock and Alpine Guide | Climbing Instructor and Coach
Super strong but lightweight cordage! Perfect for cordelettes, self-tied runners, and prussic loops.

A cord like this can be used in self-rescue applications and as an anchor. I always have one with me when multipitch climbing. It can also be cut up and used if you have to bail.

I like the purple :). I have two bundles of this stuff as my accessory cord. It is four of my wingspans long.
