Taut line Hitch: The Camping Knot Series
The taut line hitch is a friction-type hitch that can be tied on a rope that is under tension. It's also an adjustable knot. That makes is a useful camping knot, especially when rain-flies for tarps are being tied down.
The taut line hitch, however, should not be used if there is considerable strain on the rope, since there is the potential that it could slip under large forces. Taut line knots should also only be used in ropes that handle bends and turns easily. Many of the newer ropes, like climbing ropes, do not hold the taut line hitch well.
