I must learn the best way to use the knots I already know (Figure 8, double figure 8, reef knot, clove hitch, alpine butterfly). I must practice those so that I can tie them without looking. I must learn and be comfortable tying knots from multiple angles for the purpose of: • tying an object to the roof of a car (ie canoe) • hanging an object between trees (ie hammock) • running a line between trees (for shelters, etc. • Tying two ropes together • securing an object that you cannot directly tie a rope to (ie a boulder for use as an anchor)
