Hooking and Nutting | Aid Climbing

Big Wall Bible #6 of 14 - http://www.bigwalls.com
How do you place all that gear you are carrying? Do you need to have a trad climbing background where you already know how to place cams and nuts? It helps, but isn't that necessary since you rarely fall on the gear and therefore don't actually know if what you placed was good or not. Climbers also don't free climb placing the tiniest micro nut, two lobes of a totem, hooks or knife blades, so it's essential we start 'from the ground up' on how to place gear.
