Can you rap The Diamond with a single 80m rope?

Well, can you? I seem to recall 2 60s were way overkill. Also, there seems to be tat anchors all over the place. Anybody do this?

On a side note, how bout the chasm view raps and crack of delight raps? The chasm view page says you can with a 70m but the new RMNP guide shows the raps as 150' each. Same for crack of delight. Any beta much appreciated.

P.s. If the answer is hell no than any links to good deals on 100m spools would be appreciated.

P.p.s. Not sure if this has been hashed out before but the search bar seems to have disappeared.

My recollection from back in the day when 50s were the norm was that there were a couple of close raps with 50s, so you might be hosed on the D7 raps with an 80.
