Ok folks, any opinions on which you prefer: The CCH Alien Hybrids or the Wild Country Offsets?
Both. They both are great. However, the sizes covered by the CCH Alien Hybrids are better suited for protecting pin scars than their WC counter- parts due to a smaller cam head width. But the Aliens only go up to the Yellow/Red combo. Above that, the WC Offsets are great, especially the #1.5 (light blue). I use that cam all the time on walls these days. Since you moved to Josh w/ its numerous flaring granite cracks, I’d recommend you look into a bunch of WC offsets in the 1.5 and larger sizes. They’d be great for free climbing at Josh. (I can only lust after the full set right now) But, if adding to that aid rack of yours is your first priority, get all the Aliens, then gradually move up the WC line as you can afford it. From: Clyde Soles, 2/23/2000 I agree with Rex, who also has used offsets btw, and find they are a very nice improvement. For JT, Vedauwoo and a host of other climbing areas (but not Canyonlands or Devil’s Tower),the WC offsets would be my primary pro and regular cams t
