So you have it tied to both sides of your saddle? How do you get it around the tree?What carabiner? I have never (that I can recall) in my life tied a carabiner to a lineman's belt.
I have one end tied to my saddle, a stopper on the other. The only carabiner is tied to a piece of hitch cord that forms my distel...So you have it tied to both sides of your saddle? How do you get it around the tree?
This is not a lineman's belt but a lineman's rope, right?
If I'm just gonna take a loop, girth-hitch it somewhere, and leave it, why not cut out the middleman and just tie it there directly?
You run around leaving tethers in trees? Inspect for squirrel damage before hooking back up!I should have clarified that the loop I showed on the picture was for a tether, not a lineman’s rope.
But for giggles I went out to a tree in the backyard (benefits of working remotely from home), wrapped a rope around it at forehead height, and tied a double dragon knot to secure the rope to the tree to make my tether. Certainly doable but girth hitching with an existing loop seems a bit easier!

(I mentioned "leave it" for a reason. Girth-hitching loops is perfectly reasonable if the connection is temporary.)
