Subscribe to our channel for the latest training videos, climbing tutorials and more! In this video we look at another way to build a traditional anchor in the event the climber has made it to the top of the route, has three pieces of gear to place, but does not have a cordelette or sling.
Step 1: Place your three pieces of gear.
Step 2: Give yourself a couple arms’ lengths of slack and tie a clove hitch to the uppermost piece of gear.
Step 3: Take out another couple arms’ lengths of slack after tying the first clove hitch, and tie another clove hitch to the bottom anchor piece.
Step 4: Clip the length of rope between both clove hitches to the middle piece of gear, then pull down on the segments of rope between each protection point (similar to anchoring with a cordelette) and tie an overhand or figure 8 knot to create an equalized master point.
Step 5: To belay from this type of anchor, the climber can either perform a redirect belay (for more on this see our video on “How To Belay From Above”) or direct belay (for more on this see our video on “Direct Belay using an Auto-Block Device”) from the master point.
The belayer can also adjust their tether length by tying a clove hitch to the master point, similar to a standard cordelette anchor system.
