Really?
Tiny tree.
Single strand webbing.
Fortunately, there was a big tree, not just 2 pieces.

One tree, how many anchors?
Webbing way up the tree, to carabiners and static rope with a cordalette "backup" side loading a carabiner.
The webbing isn't really a loop, note the carabiner.

First timers.
Dumbing the anchor down to 9/16" webbing instead of using the stronger rope.
Dragging the climbing rope over an edge.

Everything brand new, same old mistakes.
Carabiners instead of knots.
All that rope, but not enough to get over the edge.
When your don't know what anchors do, clip everything together.
The ever popular anchor in the sky.

At least the kid attached weighed about 30 lbs.
The rope is dragging over the edge.
The rope should be at the base of the tree and the knot?

They called it a backup, what would you call it?

Strangling trees.
Tie the tree off way up from the base.
Count on a 3 inch tree.
