In the spring, we are offering a rescue focused class to assist both rock leaders and rock followers. This year’s Rescue-EX focuses on the technical skills required to improvise solutions and manage emergencies in vertical terrain.

The curriculum covers both leader and follower rescue scenarios, including:
Escaping the Belay
