Great instruction, thanks. Let's hope the bears dont have data. :>

[@bryanhikes]

Hey Mallory, thank you.

[@jeffcaputo7815]

Mallory, your demonstration was very good, but have to ask this question, which will seem silly. Is the bag supposed to be loose or tight on the tree after tying the double overhead knots plus the figure 8? Have never tried the Ursack back yet and want to make sure it is correctly secured. Thank you!

[@trailheart1863]

Thanks , good. Helpful Info here.

[@golanglobus]

What you've tied there is an offset figure eight bend or abnormal figure eight bend, in which the standing ends and free ends each exit the knot from the same side. Apparently that knot kills climbers, who should have tied the flemish bend, or normal figure eight bend, in which the free end of each rope exits with the standing end of the other. A safer knot. Are bears as strong as the weight of a climber? I don't know, but probably I think.

Did anyone else panic when she said "bear with me" at 1:56?

[@mallorymoskowitzyouradvent6053]

hahahaha! I didn't even realize! :)

[@dirtbagoutside]

Well done. Thankyou!!

[@BryanMatias]

TIL how to do a figure 8 knot. Thanks!

[@mallorymoskowitzyouradvent6053]

You're very welcome! Glad to hear this :)

I’ve used this knot previously but oh my gosh the Ursack Quick Release Knot is so much better than this one.

[@PhilAndersonOutside]

A double fisherman's knot around the tree is an extremely strong knot in that if a bear tries to yank the ursack away, the knot will not give. However, once you are done, it is a much easier knot for the human to untie than a figure eight. Even if the bear has been pulling on it with all it's might. Try it!

I wanted to see how you get it untied
