Provenance

Singing Rock is a Czech company that began life in 1992 specialising in gear for climbers, cavers and folk working at height ( industrial)
Although it’s in mint condition the harness we have here in the collection is an early version - 2001- as the buckle and leg loop technology has moved on since then. This, and a few other items, were kindly donated by retiring mountaineer, Reginald Melton.
