I wouldn’t recommend it for setting up your top rope, but the Pocket Grappling Hook is the coolest way to hang your food out of bears’ reach. The $27 Pocket Grappling Hook was made for military personal searching for tripwires or command detonation wires on IEDs, and the rig is tested to 350 pounds so it might get your buddy out of the river if you can snag his jacket without braining him. A watertight core can be filled with sand for more ballast while throwing, or it can be used to hold a few smokes for after you scale the building.
