There's a coulier in the sierras in good condition I'm heading up soon with a buddy. It's possible on the way up that we might want to belay from a deadman in a few sections
I was thinking to take my 30m 10.2 non dry rope if possible for this. However I don't really know what happens when you get a non dry rope in the snow.
Does it rapidly soak up moisture get bigger and impossible to use, or loose its dynamic properties or?
I plan to buy a nice dry alpine rope just don't have the cash before this short trip.
thanks
