Okay, well in the same order as your post... first the answer, and then the clarification. 1 - Yes. The bare minimum would be a sling. You can also add a biner to save wear on the sling. 2 - If you cannot figure that out for yourself, trad may not be right for you. Trad and aid climbing are not paint-by-numbers. You *will* get in situations requiring you to improvise and problem-solve, where your life or limb is literally on the line. I'm not making a value judgement, but these are areas where some people are good at coming up with quick and successful outcomes, and others... not so much. Cheers! GO
