The main anchor. |
It is a tensionless anchor, mostly by accident. |
Looks like he thought about a knot at right, but gave up. Neither of the stoppers is what he was attempting. |
Might as well add some draws. |
Rope above gets a flying clip to a sling. |
A very dead tree, the carabiners open in the same direction. |
Runners around everything. |
