Revision as of 18:38, 1 September 2025 by Karl (talk | contribs) (Techniques)

Welcome to the ClimboPedia

This wiki is currently in-construction. I hope in a few weeks it will be somehow safe and (sometimes) useful to visit this website.

Disclaimers

Artistic depiction of Karl intensively planning the next wiki entry

There is at the moment no official way to contact me (karl) through this website. The reason why its online now is because like this it is easier to consult with people whom I need/want to discuss.

As the website is now under-construction expect very limited functionality and maybe even factographical errors (!!!). I will remove this note once I think the website get at-least somewhat inspected. Till then its safe to use only for people who already know the techniques.

I plan to set the content somehow freely accessible for re-use in the future. Currently there is no free license on any of the content, which effectively means you cannot officially use it for anything except taking a look and referring to. In future this should (hopefully change).

For now: Use the knowledge posted here at your own risk!! (This one will probably be the case even for the future well-inspected versions)

TOC

Organized way how to go through the content based on topics (Singlepitching, Multipitching, Trad climbing, Mountaineering, Glacier etc) is planned. But before that the pages for important knots, gear and techniques has to be written.
