| They had plenty of rope, but just had to use the cordalette. |
| The anchor is way up the tree. Every time it was weighted the rope would jerk up in the air, just in time to trip someone. |
| If you're going to sell people 2 cordalettes, talk about using a knot, not adding a point of failure, much less the single carabiner. |

| No, this is not how you do a tensionless anchor. Look it up if you want to see a proper anchor. They could have used a knot instead of a single non-locking carabiner. |
| The webbing on the tiny tree is taking ALL of the load. The rope to the big tree is totally slack. That is a somewhat better tensionless anchor, not great as you can see the loose wrap. |
