3. Adjust the length of the rope as
                                     needed, then snug both strands up
                                     tight.

















                  Another  frequent  use  for  the  clove  hitch  is  anchor-
                  ing to a tree or other fixed object. This can be a fast
                  attachment that is still easy to adjust.



















                  1. Pass the line behind the object. The working end then goes
                  around the standing part of the line. Pass the working end back
                  behind the object and through the bight.
