Water obstacles

Forcing every water obstacle brings potential danger. Changes in the state of water and other circumstances may cause, that a rapid and deep stream will appear in the place of a safe beard. The only sure way to determine the depth and power of the current is to cross the river at the crossing site. If we operate in a group sent to the first, can be secured by the others with a rope, attached to something on the shore. When overcoming the rushing, stony streams should be on your head in a bright color.

Belaying with ropes

If we cross the river ourselves, We can then put a loop from a rope to a boulder or tree on the shore at most, using a knot solving by stretch, For example, a flagship. At the crossing of two or three people, the transition to ginger is easily protected using two ropes. Use belay lines when crossing the river. Be careful, that in a loose line he would not get tangled through the water.

1 The end of one rope is tied around the boulder on the shore. This rope is fed b, which gives it and protects it in water a. The strongest person should go first. And is attached to the other end of the rope released by B. Participant and also carries the final turns of the second rope, which the third partner releases – C. A carabiner is attached in the middle of this rope. And he goes in shoes and helmet, He holds a stick in his hands, which he supports.

2 After reaching the other side and attach to the boulder the end of the rope served by B.. In this way this rope becomes a handrail rope. And it attaches to the handrail rope the carabiner and wrapped in a second rope, which will be used as a belay rope.. After removing the rifle after the handrail, B pin it to the waist, Thus connecting to the belay rope. B goes by holding the handrail, while C gives the belay rope, and he chooses her.

3 Each of the people after reaching the other side of the carabiner with a belay rope from the waist and fastens it on the handrail. Then it is dragged to the other side. Backpacks can be transported in the same way. Just plug their straps into the carabiner and download the belay rope from the other bank.

4 The last one of the C does not roll the handrail rope. It is tied with its end. Wading, probing the bottom with a stick. At that time, the partners protect him by choosing a slack on the rope.
