That's really a great story, Stig. Thanks for sharing!

Rope saddles! Now you're talking.

Always a good point, B. Back in the day my climbing system consisted of 120 feet of rope. Connector was optional. My lanyard always had a snap. With either climbline or lanyard all we had were non-locking steel snaps (Klein). Never knew of anyone ever falling from those snaps...

Yeah, in the first pic the tail wasn't passed under the bridge. I miss that. Thanks for pointing it out.

Can't say I've ever been a staunch user of the Blake's, but between it and every other variation of friction hitch I've seen, it seems to me that no matter how you wrap a rope around another you end up with some kind of a friction hitch.

I like it! No reason it couldn't work, just passed under the bridge the opposite way. Cool.
