Self Rescue for Climbers

Climbing up high on a rock face- especially in remote areas- places the responsibility of avoiding and escaping trouble on your own. Learn the essentials of accident prevention and high-angle rescue for rock climbers.

We cover a wide range of topics including escaping the belay, load transfers, passing a knot, ascending a rope, constructing a pulley system, assisted rappells and lowers, etc, to manage complex scenarios like rescuing an injured leader several pitches up a route.
