Hi Mark, what about using just the T-anchor? If you decide you need backup, it's because you decide you need something more secure / stronger. What's the point of digging out a bucket seat as well apart from sitting down comfortably?

great info!

[@Mountainlionn]

Very helpful and informative. :)

That's a lot of time. Bury Deadman and belay using a munter direction off the anchor you built?

[@lewisjarvis4201]

Wouldn't a DMM Deadman do the trick. Or does this method have more advantages?
