I borrowed my friends rescue rack to try this idea… (was I bored?)
I threaded the rack like a nano-belay and rigged a 4:1 MA (minus its inefficiencies) with 6mm cord as the unloader. If I had one another Ultra Legere I’d put it on the lower attaché. As it is, it was easy to unload it when loaded with a 5-gallon jug (40+ lbs.). I’ll try heavier loads next time I rig a tree…
I tried rigging the unloader with 8mm cord but things were getting cramped inside the rack and the load rope sometimes pinches the cord too much. At least the 6mm cord has a harder sheath so it moves even when pinched.
A rescue rack with dual hyperbars would make rigging the 4:1 easier and keep the cord from rubbing with the load rope.
Is there anything unsafe about this setup?
