Which kind of knot method is used to wading across the shore?

The knots used for wading are roughly the same as those for rock climbing, but sometimes wading requires some special techniques for wading, and one of them is hiking. When wading on rivers in steep waters, you need some unique knots.

The first is when the leader is wading. As shown in the above figure, the methods of ensuring safety at the upstream and the downstream are optimal. Once the team leader has arrived safely on the other bank, the ropes will be set up between the two sides of the strait. Other members can use the pulleys to cross the bank one after another. At this time, we must not forget that we must add another rope to secure the body.

When the team leader crosses the river, members of the Kita team use two ropes to separate into upper and lower ranks to ensure the safety of the leader. In the event that the team leader accidentally slips, people in the upper stream can release the rope slightly, while the people in the lower stream pull the rope to pull the person to the river. If only one rope is used to ensure safety, the behavior of the pull rope will cause the drowning person to sink into the water.

The easiest way to ensure safety is to tie the rope to the shoulder, brake the rope tied to the wading person from the underside of the arm around the other shoulder, and then tie the rope or pull rope with the action of the wading person. If you accidentally slip, you can pin down the rope as long as you firmly grasp the tightrope.

When the team leader arrives at the other bank, it will set up the ropes between the two banks; the ropes should be tightened as much as possible, while other members use the pulleys to cross the river. However, in spite of this, once the water is inadvertently drained, the ropes will easily become obstacles; therefore, to ensure safety, Members should attach a rope to their body to prevent accidents.
