Travelers who often take part in outdoor trekking should know that the tour leader is usually armed with a climbing rope, which may come in handy in more dangerous sections. But mountaineering ropes are not the only use for travelers who use the outdoors as a resource. Do you not think of some strange and useful play?

1. Air-drying essential

It's easy to wet our clothing and other equipment when it's raining or crossing a waterfall, and that's when the rope works. Tie the rope to the nearest branch, and a clothesline is ready, perfect

2. The river width measurement

The river is far from fresh. Have you ever seen the river wide with a rope?

Tie a stone at one end of the rope, throw it across the river, and then pull back to record the point where the rock is falling, and the line that is thrown out is about the width of the river. Of course, you can also use this rope to transport goods across the river. Of course, you feel like you're comparing cows. It's not impossible to cross the river directly

Make light torches

In an extremely urgent situation, a rope can save your life. When you have no lighting or in order to prevent the beast, can use the rope tied to a dry solid branch and bound must closely, and then doused with gasoline and other fuels, lighting, a torch so finished, made of rope is much more durable than normal lit torches.

Tent alarms

Night time is an emergency, there is no way to communicate with each other between several tents is dangerous, we use the rope to link up the tents, by pulling the danger signal transfer between manner tent is very efficient. Don't use it in this way.

Refrigerate food

What? Food can be refrigerated?

B: sure. Especially in hot summer, food preservation is quite important, with waterproof containers (plastic bags, etc.) will put away things, again through the rope hanging them on high (trees, etc.) the rope below link to soak in the water, can complete the summer food insurance.

6. Mr. Let me just look at the picture

Are you surprised by the strange USES of the rope?

In the end, I will give you two kinds of knots, which are commonly used.

The most practical and common method is to tie a person's knot in the waist and tie it to a tree stump.

The eight - word knot can be used as a brake point buffer, and can be easily untied even if the pull is tight.

With all that said, there are some important things to note:

Don't lend the rope to others and don't use someone else's rope. Make sure you understand every wear and tear.

Don't step on the rope

Don't let the rope twist

Not wet the rope

Touch sharp things, especially on the edge of the rock.

Don't suddenly increase the weight.

The rope is expendable! You should consider using a rope for more than two years.
