JRB Tree Climbing and Saddle Hunting

Жыл бұрын

The Munter Friction Hitch can be configured as a midline loop knot and can serve as an emergency footloop. This technique can be used in self-rescue and self-recovery in a number of applications including loss of footing. It can also be used as a back-up footloop for SRT climbing applications. The applications of this hitch go beyond saddle hunting and into any climbing or rope access or rope rescue discipline.

From an australian who works in trees on cliffs, down caves and vertical rescue thanks. Been a while since someone showed me something new worth knowing. Great job. Always look forward to your clips of wisdom.

Now that's a great thing for me to hear, so thank you. Ya know, I do have a few friends down under and in fact, just today, I was wearing my leather Akubra that I got in NSW in 1999. Maybe I can wear it for ya in an upcoming clip. Now, pls tell me what's your favorite topic of interest? I gotta do a piece on a Universal system, which can be used for any method... I got another friction hitch to show ya... and some SRT content too.

I just started practicing to tie the 523 ascender and plan on having the in my back pocket as well. I love how reliable your knots are. Removing fail points simply is a must for me

Thx. And if we are regular users of the Munter, it would be impossible to forget how to create it in an emergency.

Excellent Paul. U heard me say it b4: I am just sharing the tools in my toolbox and you can decide which are appropriate for the specific situation. If this information is helpful, it will simply spread via word of mouth... and as that has begun, it motivates me. Cheers and thanks.

I would be upset if I went out to climb , after a long hike , and discovered after hooking up my bridge I didn’t have my garda loop, good fall back to have, thank you

Thanks for this clip. Recently I've been thinking of how I might "unload" my harness during a self-rescue situation, in order to attach and initiate a rappel devise. Recently, I was needing to manipulate gear with cold fingers and experiencing challenges in do so. With that experience I will find some added certainty with having a lanyard or tether on the dedicated emergency back-up carabiner used for the application you have presented. Thank you.

If we had time (and perhaps a beer), i could tell u stories of times when I hunted a little too long and cold in my fingers weren't working... and that's when i realized my MRS rope had become frozen in the tree crotch... and my friction hitch had frozen on the rope... I was able to to self rescue... but i learned that trouble seems to compound itself... and we need a plan for everything.
