It would be great if it weren't dead.

Eastern cedars have deep roots, but the complete absence of needles tells us it is dead.


Using two independent figure 8's means the anchor really isn't equalized.


How big is that rock? How much is underground?

Webbing used single strand, hardware in breakable rock.
Another mystery rock, this time with single strand webbing.

Mystery knots.

I think it was an attempt at a figure 8.

This one is on a bight.

The ever popular tiny tree and dead stump.

The anchor is one large loop, tied together in the center.

The knots.

No idea.

Looks like a bowline on a hollow tree, so it is backed up with...
wraps around a rotten log secured with a couple of half hitches.
