double ropes 11-Oct-2002 At 7:02:42 PM Robin

The article looks very good. The only point that may have been misinterpreted is that two ropes are good for climbing with 3 people but I would not recommend belaying two seconders simultaneously. Two ropes allow each following climber to tie into a seperate rope which is often easier than tailing a second single rope or tieing into the middle of the rope which halves the potential pitch length. Belaying two climbers simultaneously could be difficult if the two climbers are climbing at different speeds. Also if both climbers were to fall at the same time it would obviously double the load on the belay setup and the belayer.
