[pct-l] Re: Early season Streams Techniques - rope up

[CMountainDave at aol.com (CMountainDave@aol.com)]

Hey, all kidding aside, if you want to carry about 75' of 4 mm rope. Put the 
rope around a tree until its mid point. Then tie both ends to something on 
your body or around your waist. Then cross. If you slip the rope will keep you 
from going too far down stream. When you get to the other side, pull on one end 
of rope to retrieve it. No guarantees! You should be able to cross about a 20 
-25' wide creek
