Introducing the Cascade PoliWog, a must-have for canyon and climbing enthusiasts. This durable rope is a great pull cord and is built to last with a diameter of 6.5mm and made with high-quality HMPE and Vectran materials. With a minimum breaking strength of 20kn and highly abrasion resistent fibers, it can withstand tough outdoor conditions and provide reliable support for your canyon and alpine adventures. Its super lightweight design makes it easy to carry and it packs down small, making it ideal for longer approaches and canyons, or alpine expeditions. Whether you're a seasoned pro or just starting out, the Cascade PoliWog is the perfect addition to your quiver of gear collection.
*WARNING!!! Do not use with Titanium devices due to low heat dissipation. UHMPE has a low melting point but it also has a very low friction coefficient. The Vectran will help with heat dissapation. Be mindful of stopping at one point on long 250'plus rappels. All Polyester, Polypropylene and Polyethelene fibers may glaze at higher temperatures.

Reviews
I received this rope 3 months ago and have been very impressed by its strength and durability, not to mention its incredible light weight. After learning my friction settings for my rappel device, I felt comfortable enough to take this baby out into the real world. I have done 5 canyons with this rope now, ranging from rough abrasive sandstone to smooth polished granite, and it has performed flawlessly! Would highly recommend this rope to other advanced canyoners, looking to lower their weight
