I wouldn't waste my energy bring a tripod as long as I have my hands. Ha. Seriously, it does not make any sense (to me) that a M user would use a tripod. If you want light weight equipment for climbing. Just bring a shutter release and bean bag. You can always lay your camera on a rock. PS: Why do you need a B2 on a carbon tripod? I use B1 + Gitzo 421 for my Hassy and I find B1 is MORE than enough for my setup. If you use LF then it's a different story.
