What is the best climbing method?
That decision is up to the climber. JRB’s primary concern is that the method (and system used to execute it) is done as safely as possible. See pages:

How much rope do I need?
It depends on the climbing system and methods used. 40′ is typically a recommended minimum. JRB carries 80′.
What is the best rope?
There are a number of quality ropes and the market is regularly changing.
How do we get the rope in the tree?
The best way is with an arborist throwball. But we can get a rope anchored about 12′ off the ground with a Maverick Pole and then extend it as we climb.
