Knots all Hikers Should Know

In many cases the simple over hand knot that we all know will work.  However, knowing some other simple knots will allow you to quickly put up or take down a shelter. It will assist in securing one object to another.

In our class we will:

  • Build a tri-pod to use as shelter or to assist in cooking over the fire.
  • We will also quickly put up a tarp to get out of the weather
  • We will create some knots to tie on our essentials to ourselves so we don’t loose them.
