The aim is to master ascent and descent on the rope incorporating prussiking, different equipment and techniques. These manoeuvres will then be used in problem solving, self-rescue, changing ropes, and crossing knots etc. Rescue hierarchy will be discussed.
Personal kits should include at a minimum: harness, helmet, gloves, whistle, descender, at least three carabiners, and prussik loops (two short and one long). Kits can be hired for an additional fee if required. See attached documents for details.
