Guide notes say minimum 20m rope, but 40 is better, but no mention of what protection gear will be most useful. I imagine on such a well used route, someone will know just what to take, e.g 3 small wires, or a #2 Friend etc.
If the rope is just for body belay, I don't know I would bother.
Sorry if this has been discussed in forum elsewhere, I could not find it.
Thanks.
