"Hi I am Dean with Aiguille Rock Climbing Center, and I am going to tell you a little bit about the basics regarding anchoring when it comes to rock climbing. You want to be sure that your system is solid meaning that anything that you attach to is not going to go anywhere. A solid tree that is alive, and it has deep roots you want to be sure that if you are attaching to hardware that has been pre-placed in the wall that it was done correctly, and appropriately, and is not too old to climb on. You also want to check on the redundancy of your climbing anchor. If any one part of the system goes, the rest of the system should hold correctly. Anchoring is one of the most crucial parts of climbing. Without an appropriate anchor, nothing in the rest of your system is going to hold appropriately. Because of that it does take a lot of experience to do correctly. You absolutely need to seek professional assistance when you intend to do it your first time. Rescue anchoring has to do with when there is a problem, and there are professionals brought in in order to rectify the situation. There are tons of anchors that are used that are not regarding rescue, but that are needed in order to facilitate climbing appropriately on a regular basis. The anchors are a critical component you can't set up your rope appropriately without building the correct anchor no matter what type of climbing you are doing."
