Hi this sounds like fun. How does this work? My guess you would
need teamwork to complete the task. e.g. scouts will be at key
positions around the tree and they would toss the rope to each
other and make the knot? if this was a competition, do you use
time to select a winner.

No one needs to throw a rope. If a competition, I'd just say the
first to succeed is the winner.
