    I learned this lesson with a bamboo tripod I lashed and frapped with some bank line. Great stuff as always, thanks.

    Option 3 (drop loop)is the best option since you have 6:1 mechanical advantage.

    The best option is always what the situation presents. That is a fancy way of saying your environment and equipment are going to determine your course of action, not what is best or most efficient necessarily. That is why it is so important to have several techniques learned so you can adapt on the fly especially in a rescue situation. Thanks for commenting.

    Skedco Industrial Tri-Pod. Personally I found the Triskelion to be better.
