Leaving Main line up a tree

[Bayhales]

Do people leave ropes up trees to carry on next morn? I have pollarded every thing around me and left with a few lateral bottom branches and the main stem I'm anchored into. I haven't left many anchor points below so it's gunna take a 1/100 throw bag shot. The site is safe by the way. Cheeers

Yeh I do all the time just leave the ends of your rope in the bowl of the tree out of reach and take your hitch/ gadget off

Have done, but with the weather at the moment I'd pull a throwline up on the end of the rope and then leave that till the morning

Leave a shot line in, not as noticeable and cheaper to replace, just in case

[SamCCM]

+1 for the throw line technique

[Mr. Squirrel]

+2 for throw line. Would never leave my rope on the job over night.

I do occasionally but only if its out of sight and in a decent neighbourhood, havnt had any problems yet.

Throwline for me. Mainly because I don't trust squirrels

[Mark Bolam]

I have done, but try not to.

Pugged up in a crotch, as said.

 

Throwline is a lot better.

 

Nowt worse than climbing on a wet rope on a fine day because it got drenched overnight.

 

Actually, there are a lot of worse things, but you know what I mean.

Throw line here, nothing worse than a soaking wet rope first thing in the morning! Actually I'm wrong there is a soaking wet rope frozen solid! Also the customers dog is bound to pee or crap on the rope bag at the bottom!
