I bought two of the following climbing pulleys so I could have a high and low pulley https://www.amazon.com/GM-CLIMBING-Certified-Prusik-Minding/dp/B00ZPR17FA/ref=sr_1_3?s=outdoor-recreation&srs=13162138011&ie=UTF8&qid=1511670715&sr=1-3&th=1
and I got the 4.5mm option of this accessory cord https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01E8XTIV6/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1&th=1
I just cut the cord to the lengths I needed and tied a knot with a loop in the end where I could attach a carabiner. I just use cheap soft loops through the handles of my weights instead of a loading pin. It's all pretty fast to set up, cheap, and super smooth. I've tested the accessory cord with 4 45s, and that's more than I'd use anyway.
That looks like the front of your house. I’d make sure you don’t create an attractive nuisance or something that would attract kids to climb up and potentially hurt themselves.
If that’s not an issue some ideas:
Cranford EZY Climb Folding Rope Step 4 Pack
A rope ladder
Construct something from wood. Look on Pinterest for ideas.
There are a lot of products that hunters use to get into deer stands. There are also mountable platforms. Look up “deer stands” on amazon.
I got mine off of [amazon] (http://www.amazon.com/TITAN-WarriorCord-100-Feet-MIL-C-5040-H/dp/B00EPLFB9K). Its the Type III 7 strand and they have a ton of different colors.
My kit, which is usually in some sort of shoulder or back pack, always has a thin roll of Gorilla Tape, a spool of micro-paracord (80 lb test, overkill for most repairs), a powerbank capable of charging my phone to completion more then once and the appropriate cable, condoms (can be used for the obvious but also as a bandage or to carry water), a method to make fire, and some sort of snack. I have a water container with me 100% of the time. Of course there's way more silly things in there, but those things are key.
The micro paracord is super useful, for easy rope and fun/socially. A lady's purse breaks, you can fix that no problem. Need an impromptu keyring? I got ya. Even marking which suitcases go to which hotels in a third world country (most recent time I was happy to have it). Ill grab a link from Amazon. I love it
Tons of colors too, a chain of military surplus stores in my city carries it.

Try these as well. I use them when I bow hunt on public land where screwing steps into trees is illegal.
I bought this accessory cord off amazon: SGT KNOTS Nylon Accessory Cord, (6 mm x 50 feet) - Purple https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N0A9AYN/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_tai_NEM-ybTD15218
I haven't used it yet and I realized nothing on their product description says anything about strength, and I want something good enough to build anchors out of. Where do you all buy your cordelette? Is 6mm enough? I've read mixed opinions. Should I just go with 7 or 8mm?
Thanks
