Rock Climbing: How to Tie a Bowline Knot

The Bowline Knot is a useful knot for tying the rope to a tree or other natural anchor. It’s unlikely to slip when loaded, but it might shake loose when it’s unloaded, so be sure to back it up with a Stopper Knot. This video shows you how to tie the Bowline Knot.
