Pump up your anchor-setting swag repertoire with the Metolius Personal Anchor System. Strength rated 18kN, the PAS presents a safe and easy alternative to slings, daisies, or quickdraws. In a Central Oregon garage in 1983 Doug Phillips, founder of Metolius Climbing, started hand crafting climbing equipment that was superior to what was readily available at the time. Skip ahead some 28 years the garage is no longer the base of operations but Metolius is still cranking out climbing gear that goes unsurpassed.
