Fig. 7. In Fig. 7 the Pole Hitch is shown complete. 



The lacings on the side bring a great compressing 

 stram. While this diagram does, of necessity, 

 appear to illustrate a somewhat complicated hitch, 

 yet the Pole Hitch is one of the simplest and most 

 easily tied. 



The Pole Hitch is used for lashing the poles of a 

 Travois to the animal; this is its use.
