Loose rock at Carderock? Nah, but...

Run the rope under the roots to pull the tree out of the ground.

Use the small tree, not the enormous one?

The rock at the bottom ripped out of Jugs to Jersey, a seldom done climb until storm damage took the tree blocking part of it. Newbies think they are rigging Yellow Jacket.

The black area between the ropes is where the block was. Fresh rock means more loose rock. Nobody was hurt

Two black ropes are both up the tree increasing leverage

7MM (green) is not a real anchor.

The red tag means it is DEAD. Not tying off the end is a bonus.
