With the bight of a rope exiting your slip knot above, tie an overhand knot around the loaded line. At this point, the munter hitch is tied off. Some people call this a "tied-off munter hitch" or "blocked munter hitch" while in the US, it is sometimes referred to as the "munter mule." You can now proceed to add additional backup knots or rig a system if required. 2, record 1, English, - munter%2Dmule
