Pole guying

Hi there, today I’m looking for suggestions about pole guying. Normally I use (the stump of) a tree or some bushes to bring up my 6m pole in an upright position. For me personally using the cross at the summit is no option, I don’t want to disturb other hikers with my wires and the noise … so I usually look for a quiet place a bit away from the summit. Most of the time a tree or some bushes are available … but not on all summits! So I’m thinking of building myself a lightweight pole guying kit…

There are several suggestions on how to guy your mast.

You can see how I mount my mast when there are no trees, … in this video:
