Be sure to listen to Phil and put some feet of EHS between the anchor point
and the philistran. If you have trees, bushes, etc they will wear on the
philistran, not to mention what fire will do. (Remember, trees grow) My
philistran is about 30 feet above the ground at its lowest point and I am
beginning to have a problem with those darn palm trees.
