phx42 TVA Probe

Many thanks to everyone who participated in our phx42 Probe Carrying Contest.
We had many entrants and have decided to name even more winners than we had originally
planned.

The Grand Prize of $250 goes to Bruce Phillips (with Lily/ERM). Bruce’s method features a
swivel carabiner (to allow the probe to lay flat in any position) and a d-clip to secure the probe
tip from swinging while climbing. (The attractive hoody was not part of the contest, but we
have had inquiries about where Bruce got it.)
