In reply to rockwing:
Positives and negatives, but I think a light rope you can lead on and handle with gloves is ideal.
30m helps with lightness, but makes it harder to ab; 50m helps with abs and running out longer pitches if needed, but is heavier. If you often scramble in a roped 3, then a 50m would be better; if you often scramble in two roped teams then you could ab easily on two 30ms...
I wouldn't worry about needing a 3-rated rope; I think a single or half would also work fine. But, a 3-rated would be ace all other things being equal, simply because it means you're working with a light but strong/abrasion resistant rope.
IIRC, the Rando is not a rated rope and should be avoided except for MLs who just want a rope to carry around with the bizarre idea that you might rope down a grass slope.
