About the Climbing Self-Rescue Course
What would happen if your party needed to perform a rescue on high-angle rock or technical ice or on a glacier with the very limited resources available in a typical small climbing party? This advanced-level rescue course will teach you the skills that you need to be competent during high-angle rock and ice rescues for parties of two.
