Climbing

The Tree Hog 40L rope bag is a roomy, simple bag for storing and feeding an arborist climbing line. At 40 liters it holds a full-length climb line with space to spare, so stuffing rope at the end of the day goes fast.

A rope bag that keeps up

Rope that lives in a pile on the ground picks up grit, gets stepped on and ends up in the brush pile. A 40L rope bag keeps the line together and clean. Secure the tail, flake the rope in loosely, and it feeds back out without kinks when you throw your next line.

The extra volume over a 25 or 30 liter bag means you are not fighting to close it, and there is space for a lanyard or a friction hitch cord on top.

TreeHog is known among climbers for simple, durable storage gear. This bag is not complicated: a big open body, a way to anchor the tail and handles to carry it. That simplicity is what you want from a rope bag you use every day and drag through every job site.

Mark the bag with tape or a tag that says what rope is in it and its diameter. When three bags sit at the base of a tree, nobody should have to guess which one holds the climb line.

Good habits with any rope bag

Keep climbing and rigging lines in separate, clearly marked bags. Do not store a wet rope sealed in a bag for days. Keep the bag away from fuel cans, bar oil and battery boxes in the truck.

A clean bag helps your rope last, but it does not replace inspection. Check your line before every climb. Browse more sizes in our rope bags section.

On storm jobs and long removals, it is also a handy place to stash a lowering line or a spare climb line so it stays ready and clean in the drop zone.
