another way to attach to a harness

[edit]

I am trying to find the primary knot climbers use to attach their harness to the belay line. However, searching this article for "harness" doesn't obviously find it. The matches are:

Girth hitch: This hitch is commonly used to attach loops of runner to harnesses, bags, other kinds of equipment, and to natural features like rock knobs or brush/tree trunks for protection and
Yosemite bowline: Also called a bowline with a Yosemite finish, this is another way of tying the rope to the harness

So where is the "principal way" to tie a rope to the harness? —EncMstr (talk) 17:50, 31 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

In my experience, this would be the doubled-over figure-eight loop. Arbitrarily0 (talk) 18:11, 31 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
