A canopy anchor is a climbing system that anchors the rope in the canopy of a tree. While a moving rope system (MRS) typically uses a canopy anchor (or tie-in point), a stationary rope system (SRS) creates the option of a canopy or basal anchor. Why would we use a canopy anchor? When is it better than using a basal anchor?
Craig Bachman discusses the basics of what canopy anchors are, how to distribute loads, the differences to base anchors and more in this Trainer’s Test Kitchen at TCI Expo 2021.
