Garda Hitch
The Garda Hitch, also known as the Alpine Clutch, is a type of climbing knot that can only be moved in one direction. It is often used in climbing and mountaineering, such as in pulley systems to haul loads up a cliff. However, the Garda Hitch has some drawbacks, including being difficult to release under load, difficult to inspect, and adding significant friction to a pulley system. It can be challenging to determine which direction the rope will move freely and which direction it will lock just by looking at it. To tie a Garda Hitch, you need two similar carabiners, and it works best with two identical oval carabiners. While "D" carabiners can also be used, there is a risk of them unclipping.. Tying method Attach the two oval carabiners to a sling or cord with both of their gates facing up and out in the same direction.Soles pg.135-136 To use the Garda Hitch with "D" carabiners, attach them to a sling or cord so that they are side by side with the gates facing downward and outwa ...
