Cool:thumbup:

 

So, on descent with a rope not big enough to put an alpine butterfly in to retrieve the rope, how does one retrieve the rope?

 

Again, just interested (and me being thick:lol:)

 

In this case, once everyone was down, Nathan untied everything then came down ddrt, with a couple of changeovers. The tree was 34 odd metres so would've needed a sixty metre + rope to get a base tie in one rope. Otherwise, you could do some mallion/ring/throwline combos to retrieve a top tie in a tree such as this. There's a few ways to do it, check out the tcia srt handbook and the rw thread:thumbup:
