How to make a Prusik loop from accessory cord

You don't have to buy a presewn Prusik loop for rock climbing, canyoneering, caving, or other rope adventures. You can buy a big length of accessory cord like this one:

Depending on the diameter of the rope you'll be using for your adventure, you'll need a different diameter accessory cord. I like to use a 5mm cord with my 8-9mm canyoneering ropes. I like a 6 or 7mm cord with my beefier climbing ropes.
Prusik loops are extremely useful and versatile for all kinds of self-rescue rope work and an invaluable resource when things don't go as planned.
