What would you do? (line safety situation)

[skip]

If you don't plan to do any jumps, one spool is supposed to be enough, but I agree that it sometimes isn't.

FWIW, I never carry less than 3, and add one for each planned jump.

In intro class, doing lost line drill, and no lights, I dropped my spool while trying to tie off! No worries, just pulled out a back up and continued. Taught me to make sure I always have a backup or two!
