Absolutely. When I say climbing, it's not in the same context that Jim or W_D use the term. Not even close. I have never, ever "climbed" as they use the term.

But there have been a few spots I wanted to explore and I came back with a rope to make it easier on me. In all these cases it looked tougher (to me) than it turned out to be, and I didn't really need the rope, but I didn't regret bringing it.
