<h3>Gear-tape - labelling</h3>
<p>It is almost essential (for caving generally, but particularly for Expo) to settle
on a particular combination of colours of electrical insulation tape, and label
<em>absolutely everything</em> you own with the stuff. The table above shows combinations already taken. 

For other CUCC colour combinations already in use see <a
href="https://camcaving.uk/Documents/Legacy/Gear%20Tape%20Colours%20-%20Cambridge%20University%20Caving%20Club.htm">CUCC gear tape</a> (current gear tape page offline, so this is the legacy page). 


<p> Tape
<em>everything</em>, not just your caving gear; while one karabiner looks much
like another, it's equally true that one karrimat looks much like
another. And especially your phone, phone cable, charger, charger-cable, laptop, mouse, mug/plate/cutlery -
essentially anything you want to be reasonably sure to get back.</p>
