How are the double A-Frames erected? Obviously they can't be driven into the ground, and it seems to me that the 3-2-1 anchors are solely for the rope bridge. I'm beginning to think maybe the anchors help so bow my question is: would it be better to angle the double A-frames slightly and if so, which way? Also, I noticed that this revised monkey bridge is "less likely' to fail than the single A-frame style and I can't help but wonder why no one has thought up a few fail-safes.
It's great hearing the Scouts thank the adult volunteer for helping them.
Hello!!
My name is Material Rope the third.

The strain created by the anchored hand and foot ropes provides enough downward tension to keep the A-frames erect.
