ROPE ANCHOR FOR SUPPORT ROPE SEPARATION WITH INTERMEDIATE ANCHOR
A support rope separation also includes an intermediate anchor. When terrain conditions are simple and equip-
ment is appropriate, a support rope separation is recommended after approx. 60
–100 m.
Note: When changes in alignment downslope are greater than 25°, a support rope separation must also
be arranged for the intermediate anchor.
CHANGE IN ALIGNMENT UPSLOPE
When a change in alignment upslope is greater than 30°, an intermediate anchor must be attached to the post
upslope. The maximum change in alignment upslope is 40°.
