They catch you with those and it's over. I'd try looking for another way in.


Do u seriously think most cops even know what that is?

Why not use them on the fence then either leave them on or near your point of entry while on location so if you are caught they are not on you?

You misunderstand...the folding metal things are pointless, because they're fairly heavy, bulky and clank like a fucking choo choo train. The activist things are pretty slick, except for the attaching with a cheap brass keyclip.

The rope step with the garden hose and carabiner sounds like a good idea. as long as the carabiner is rated to hold weight..

Actually, you might be right. Those little dinky "toy" 'biners are pretty fucking strong. I use them to support my hammock when I backpack, and they've held up me and a friend with no problem, even with a good amount of moving around.

Since the weave of the fence would "give" a little bit, it's not really rigid enough, and wouldn't be suddenly loaded like if one used it for climbing pro and fell. I think it would work.


Maybe I'll do some super unscientific load testing tomorrow.

I don't think something like that would be grounds to get in trouble, however it certainly would make you look a lot more guilty. If I were to catch somebody with something like that (or anything that didn't look "normal"), at the very least I would be suspicious and would question you a lot more than I normally would.

On that note...

If you wanted to be ultra sneaky, you could use 2' long sections of rope, each with a loop in the end, and a small 'biner on the other. Link them together with the 'biners, and use it as a belt. That's pretty inconspicuous, yes?

"What is the rope for sir?"

Unless you could come up with a good answer off the top of your head, same deal as above.

I personally generally wear my shirt untucked, so something being worn as a belt shouldn't be visible, unless you already had cause for a search. Maybe?

Really thats what it's about. i don't know about you but my foot cannot fit into the holes of a standard chainlink fence. and it's especially awkward to try and do an 8 foot fence.. a solid one, with a bookbag and tripod on your back. i mean i did it but my hands were killing me afterwards, i'm just looking for anything to make it a little easier.

here's another thing i've seen. DIY solution, although i don't know that i'd trust my weight to it..

http://www.schnews...limbing-fences.htm


You don't need a foothold to climb a standard a 8 even 10 foot barbed wire top fence. Just some upper body strength and balls (that don't droop)

Vibram soles work fine; you use mostly your arms while bracing with your feet, like climbing an T or I-beam.
Alternating climb at a gate as it's easier to breach there.
A tree or such right against the fence is very helpful.

Don't carry excessive shit. If you get hung up at the top, impaled or otherwise hooked, your in for a painful lesson, and maybe lots of stitches.
Strong lats and triceps help a lot.

Never carry tools.
Tools show premeditation and intent.
Experienced cops have seen lots of "tricks"; don't assume yours is a novelty. Even if it is, they can still simply R&D it, call for back up, etc.
They probably will.

Use care when breaching fences.
You can be hurt seriously if not careful.
In most states it turns into a misdemeanor trespass as soon as you breach it.
Tools may increase the severity charges too if caught.
Always assume you may be caught, adjust accordingly.

Make sure any encounters will be survivable beforehand (legally/physically), or just leave it be!

I was going to say ZipTies would work pretty well. and yu could leave em up.
If the owner looks, he will prolly think someone tried to put a sign on his fence...But i like this idea of learning to do it without tools, cause one day they might not be around.

Personally speaking, I wouldn't believe an excuse like that for a second. I've heard some good excuses from people before, but generally common sense will prevail. IE, if it sounds like BS, it probably is.

I really like the zip tie idea though. They're small and strong, and really easy to ditch.

Yeah,the zipties are fuckin smart. I feel stupid for not thinking of that one. They'd be more rigid and able to retain their shape than un-reinforced rope.

Ummm, I hate to say this, but first most zip ties don't have the tensile strength to support a man, and they're not needed.

Worse if a cop finds you with them, the first thing that will flash through their mind is what they use them for; restraint devices.
Just add some masking tape and that will throughly convince them you need to be dealt with.

Doing chin-ups and dips for reps, in while maintaining strict form, will do more for your fence climbing abilities than any device.

A thick a old coat, piece of leather, etc. might be nice to throw over barbed wiring, or my personal technological dread; razor wire.

Or maybe just go under it, or find someone else's hole (my favorite).

There's chain link out there with holes that are about 1.5" square. The zipties wouldn't be holding your full body weight, either. The weight would be distributed between 4 of them at a time, and if it's really sketchy, use two for each hold.


Sometimes it really doesn't matter what people think...it's hard to make a case for intent, and that's something I would take my chances on. I don't mind being detained, it's criminal charges (that I can't beat) that I have problems with. There is no listing in MGLs for "posession of kidnapper's accoutrements" or "posession of restraints", and not many people would think they could be used as steps for climbing. I think that makes the chances of a DA being willing to pursue charges low enough to take the risk.

Please don't be stupid. It might piss me off so much that I have a seizure or something. I hate stupid people.

my feet are so small i can actually fit them in the holes in chain link alot of the time (men's size 3) but ive actually heard rumors of people using those ninja boots


I hope you are joking....


As for this location whats this fence like? If you can fit your hands in the fence you should have no problem. If that fails just bring a friend and have him give you ten fingers so your up high enough to grab the top. Two average height people (5' 10") give or take a couple inches should be able to to get you up high enough to grab about a 15' fence. Once your up either drop down a rope or reach down and pull the friend up.

I climb stuff!
