Excellent plan.
We have 8mm (near single use 1200 lb load climbing rope) as follows in order to reduce volume and weight in get home bag.
11mm is best, but sometimes a good enough rope is better than nothing if you’re more apt to carry it.

Available on Amazon for 50

Especially recommend using a rope chaffing guard such as:
Spiroll Chafe Guards - Pair, Orange 15.75” (Fits up to a 5/8” Line)
