User Review: Black Diamond Alpine Bod

Black Diamond Alpine Bod
Above: The current Alpine Bod, which may differ slightly from the version reviewed.

Rating: rated 4 of 5 stars
Price Paid: $35

Mine is the older model, gear loops have been added now. I find this harness has been adequate for alpine climbing and I have done low class rock climbing with it too. One advantage is that it is simple and lightweight. Another advantage is that it is adjustable because I seem to gain weight and use more clothing in the winter. It is as safe as any certified, approved harness. Because it has no padding it isn't comfortable to hang in for more than a few minutes. It has no belay loop, but that hasn't been a problem. It depends on what you use it for, but for my purposes, so far, it has been great.
