Third.

My use is very modest, but it's held up fine in the Sonoran Desert environment.

I'll second Mastrant. I have a variety of their product in the air here,
the majority of it through pulleys at over 100' in pines. I buy their rope
almost exclusively.

It's handled the rub, pine pitch, sun, ice etc. just fine. And this is New
England.

I wish I could remember the specific Mastrant rope product used for my
higher catenary (as it takes the most abuse) but it's been up long enough
that I've forgotten. Anyway: Mastrant.

Thanks Kirk. I saw this stuff in a booth at the last Visalia DX
convention, and it looked very good. Their website calls it "guy rope."
Would you expect it to wear well going through pulleys in trees that
sway a lot in the wind?
