My guyline & tension system for tents, tarps, and hammocks

Andrew Skurka's guy line tensioning system. I always used a quick-release hitch[1] instead of a bowline and a taut line hitch[2] instead of a trucker's hitch -- but the trucker's hitch looks like it would get and keep everything more taut.
