What would you do if your climbing partner became stuck or injured? When help maybe hours away or not coming at all, your own skills to prevent and deal with situations will make all the difference. Like Outdoor first-aid, self rescue knowledge is essential for all climbers.

Who’s the course for:

This one day course is for climbers who are competent at Trad Lead Climbing or Multi Pitch Sports Climbing.

What’s included:

  • Revision of setting up belays.
  • Simple problem avoidance.
  • Personal abseiling safety.
  • Evacuating an injured casualty.
  • Assisted & unassisted hoists.
  • Escaping the system.
  • Passing knots.
  • Ascending and descending a fixed rope.
  • Emergency procedures.

Full course information, itinerary and kit list will be sent once the booking has been confirmed.
