Pitching A Tarp With Dutch Hooks and Prusik Knots

My friend Sgt. Rock asked if I would illustrate how to use the Dutch Hook and a Prusik knot. This illustration shows end-only tie outs for the ridge line, but you could easily use a full-length ridge line with Dutch Hooks if you desire. The only change would be to attach one Dutch Hook to the line with a Prusik. In this way, you would clip one Hook to one anchor point and the opposite side would be adjusted with the Prusk attached Dutch Hook.

Enjoy!
