Can it be used for mountain climbing ??

Absolutely not. It is a kernmantle rope but not heavy enough nor designed for such. Check out Blue Water, Singing Rock, Edelrid and such for climbing, belaying and rappelling work.

I would think you might be able to use it in an absolute emergency to get down from somewhere. I would never use it as a mountain climbing rope though. It's about a quarter inch thick

Hey, M R:It's Darren Wright from Paracord 550 MilSpec (TM). Thanks for your question!Paracord is very strong and durable, especially for the small diameter of the cord. However, it's not at all made for mountain climbing. The lines used for mountain climbing are much heavier and sturdier than Paracord. Hope this helps!Darren

I would say yes. I purchased this bag for a day pack use while I was in backcontry of Yosemite. It was also my carry on for the flight out and had all my rock climbing gear (cams,nuts and a rope about 25 lbs). It's lightweight and really handy.

Pretty sure it won't deter climbers. Not strong enough for one, and it has enough holes and ridges to give them a grip anyway.

Yes, we bought them to make a large climbing wallmfor our i7ds and they are great. They are fantasic replicas and will grow nicely with your climbing skills.

Of course it can as long as you can chock the wheels but it depends how high off the ground you'll need to lift. Good range but maybe not the highest available but bang for buck and understanding this is far from everyday quality.....go for it !

No. Definitely not. Climbing rope is rated to around 5000lbs and features a thick outer mantel to protect the very stretchy inner cores. Climbing on this stuff would be signing your own death certificate. Climbing falls or accidently shock loading a cord by a fall even as short as a few inches creates an enormous amount of force which this cord is not at all intended for. Shorter lengths of climbing rope are available on Amazon and you need proper training and lots of experience before venturing out and using it, but beware, many have fallen for the siren call of rock climbing.

I've never tried, but would not use it for that. It's designed to pull up archery equipment such as a bow at maybe 4-8 lbs. Not designed for people...

You definitely can, the grip bar is pretty strong. Not sure what the max is, but you can easily go higher then 100.

Absolutely not! It is not designed for that kind of weight load. A camera with too big of a zoom or telephoto lens would be too much on it, much less a hiker putting their weight on it. You'll need to get a hiking staff that's made for hiking. Good question though, not a bad idea either.

The term is "rappelling" and no, this rope is not made for technical climbing. You should use only ropes bought at outdoor stores made specifically for climbing or caving for rappelling or doing any rope work involving body weight and your life.

I'm not a mountain climber, but I've fiddled around with it a bit and the hammer is definitely NOT an instrument designed to aid and assist in rock climbing per se. Rock climbing gear is very different stuff and I doubt this item would be well suited to that job. However, I will say that I weight 174 pounds and when climbing a tree I jammed the hammer head/spike crossways in the notch of a branch above my head and it held my entire body weight with no problem. It is likely that it would hold someone that was 220 pounds as well if they were doing what I was doing.

Hi Robert, I would not reccomend it for tree climbing. A static line would be more efficient. With the elasticity of standard climbing ropes ascending lines would be more tiring and slower.I hope this helps, if you have any more questions please let me know.-BennettOMC Customer Service

First of all,I'm not a climber,but they must carry more gear to do a climb than anybody!This bag is definitely not for ropes,too small,a North Face duffel would be better.Hammers,carabiners,wedges,rosin bags,small stuff,OK?

Mountain and wall climbing ropes are made for these activities. It's more than tensile strength, it has a lot to do with the stretch of the rope so it's not as hard of landing. There is also another rating which I forget the name but it's the force of a falling weight. This stuff is great and is the right kine of paracord for all sorts of things but I wouldn't put my life or safety on the line without better info. But to answer your question this stuff is strong, strong, strong.

It could definitely be used for skiing both with the head strap/helmet mount or the chesty mount as done by most of the team athletes. If you go any lower where it will be constantly exposed to the snow like on a ski or the side of a boot, you would want to keep it dry so the waterproof housing would be a better choice. Depends ultimately on whether or not it will be getting wet.

Sure, it would work great for that. Can hold a lot of weight. Very maneuverable.

Absolutely! This is a great outdoor product for kids or anyone with the urge to climb.
