HORSE PACKING 



Fig. 4 



Fig. 4. No. 2, when the rope was thrown to him (as in 

 Fig. I) performs on his side exactly the same opera- 

 tions as have been just described for No. I and 

 prepares to pass the end of the rope under and 

 through the bight below the sobre-jalma. It will 

 be observed that here are two half-hitches, one on 

 either side of the pack mule. 



The position of the lash rope is now as indicated in 

 Fig. 4.
