How to tie a knot in a ‘normal’ rope WITHOUT letting go of the ends… Also, how about NOT crossing ur hands?
I went to a camp this weekend, and we did some ‘challenges’… One was to tie a knot in a rope while holding onto BOTH ends of the rope without letting go… The guy in charge also said that it’s possible to tie it WITHOUT crossing your hands, (which one of our group members figured)… Any help please? Even a website with pictures or explanation will be great.
Thanks!!!
Martin answers:
Simply put BOTH loose ends in ONE hand and the loop end in the other. Use the loop end to make the knot like normal and you haven’t let go of the ends!

Like the ones above ?, these all use simple lashings and clove-hitch Knots found the link under Boys Scouts Pioneering skills
As for camping rules there are recommendations but no set rules. There are laws regarding where when and how many people and fire permits etc. These can be found at your local park jurisdictions. Here is a Link with a lot of advice on camping.

Mark asks…
Can someone name this barrel game?
I learned it at camp. and what you do is there are a whole bunch of people and they each hold a rope. the ropes are short and have knots on each end. each person holds one knot in each hand.. once everybody is ready everybody goes around in a circle around the barrel. and you can pull people to the barrel but you cannot trip or physically touch them to make them touch the barrel. each person who touches the barrel in any way, or lets go of the rope, is out. and you go ’til last person standing. what’s the name of this game?
It is not Crazy Joe’s Beef Jimboree

Martin answers:
Haha, I think your going a bit over board with this. If you want to get back at them, don’t try and kill them, nevermind their family. I think you need to think about what you’ve just said, and just talk to them, okay? Please don’t do anything stupid!
