Hi Patrick. I'm glad you covered the downside of using the tail of you primary system as a secondary system. Climber safety is often overlooked when people introduce new climbing and positioning techniques. Your well rounded and carefully thought out presentations are valuable to us. Thank you my friend! Let's have coffee sometime.
I love the Blakes hitch, simplest way to get in and out of a tree. The taut line is a great option too. I actually used to Blake hitch to replace the hinges on my Chevy door. I was able to rig it over a tree overhead and hold it. Just aside from the work area!
Patrick, I can't tell you how many times I have commented on other channels when someone had given some misinformation and I had seen a video of yours. I would tell them see whatever informative video I had seen you put out. I think people tying the yosemite back up is the most often I see people doing wrong. Always love your videos.
Thanks for droppin knowledge. For the cost and safety of another climbing line I couldn't see myself doing that. I carry three climbing lines for that situation. I would love to learn the captains hook which I think is slick to access trees in close proximity. Love your channel. I've learned alot from you.
Rad deal about using the clove hitch in the closed system like that is the "throw" is easily adjustable. You can elongate it quickly to pull from under the hitch for long ascents, then shorten for working.
Hello sir. I have a video request. I’ve seen people rig trees with grcs to fall on another tree and buck it down as they lower it. How do they set the tie in point for the tree to be rigged out. I get how to suspend the rigggin In the grcs tree but how do they tip tie the other tree without climbing it.
Can be done with a throwline, but it needs to be solid and cinched fully. They probably climbed to set. The whole system needs to be adequate for potentially huge weights. Oftentimes the rigging is more to keep the piece upright and the weight of the tree is actually impacting the ground particularly on the early cuts.

Great explanation! Thanks for all your clear demonstrations!
Such an EXCELLENT teacher. Best on the net. Thank you Patrick!
Appreciate it ✌️
@@TreeMuggs_PatrickM Autodidactics love being honest! 🙏🙏🙏
Enjoyed the video, Patrick. Nice of you to brave the elements to demonstrate a very important technique for setting up a second climb line tie in.
Video saved... This is awesome, just doubled my rope count..
Im already on a double blakes, so this is a no brainer

Thanks brother, I'm not an expert but I appreciate that 🙏

Not if its convenient, or maybe the help is busy or absent.. risk takers should be kept from this tech 😂😂😂😂
There's something very appealing about using a method from history. If you don't do it often enough, you forget details of how these are tied.
Hey Patrick they taught us this over at TCI. This is what they told us to do for redirect
Great idea

cool man, thanks!
Thanks. I’ll have to try this. I climb on a lot of silver maples, which can be pretty sprawly.
Love your content Patrick. Keep it coming!
Ah definitely gonna use that one
Great Video!. 🇺🇸🪓🦫🪵🪓🪵🪓🌲🌳
Thanks Patrick I climb on the Blake's hitch

Yeah I set these with throwline, tough to show on a video but I can try
Thanks.
August and his crew have a video of them throwing the throw ball but not really explaining
Also a warning for the loop catching a bombed branch
That rope is very cool. What is it?! 🤩
Yale Phantom
@@TreeMuggs_PatrickM thank you 🙏 going to be ordering me one
The other concern i would have is that the loop of rope would catch some falling limb and break something.
must know knot
Can you use your tail to lift things up?
