The course lasts 2 days and covers the following. It is fairly physical as the whole day is practical so a level of fitness is required.
The curriculum begins with an introduction to personal equipment, fundamental rope handling and team travel and then progresses through topics such as rope ascending and descending, load transfer, belaying, lowering, hauling systems and mechanical advantage and crevasse rescue of injured parties. We will look at a wide variety of different products available and which techniques suit you best.
