Crevasse Rescue and First Response
Hauling systems, self-rescue, first aid at altitude and evacuation: what you hope never to do, practised until you no longer have to think.
In coordination with the NNMGA
01The training
A guide must be able to get a client out of a crevasse, alone and fast. The training repeats hauling systems until they become reflexes.
It also covers first aid at altitude and organising an evacuation.
