Once, before I foolishly decided to finish my degree, I had free time to go spend falling off of rocks. I often wished I could hang a strong anchor point in the sky to protect sketchy climbs. I even wrote a note in a guidebook that suggests something to the effect of "small cams, a #6 or #7 hex, 30 feet of cord, and a skyhook are required to protect this route".
