is this a good conference to go to, i have thought of attending/?

This will be my third time going there and first time presenting. So yes, I think it is a good thing to go to. If you are a rope geek, this is Mecca.

It's really a group of 150 people who really care about everything rope in one conference room for 2 days. Some of the presentations might only apply to mountain rescue teams, some only to tower workers, but a lot of times their techniques and ideas are adaptable to use by the fire service. I think it's a good way to keep progress going.
