This is part 2 of the two day Ice Rescue Course.
You do not have to take both days this year. The
Ice Rescue
201 course is for anyone who has taken the RR 101
course or for
anyone who
already has taken a rescue course. This day will
involve more complicated scenarios and deal with
how to extract you and your partner from a
multipitch scenario. Lowers in guide mode,
raises and
counterbalance / tandem rappels. What to do if
your rope is cut or damaged by ice or
axes/crampons. What to do if your belayer is
struck by falling ice.
Cost : $136.25
This trip will be filled on a first-come-first
served basis for people who have paid the
registration fee. When you sign up for the wait
list you will receive an email from the
coordinators confirming if there is still space
in the course. At that point, please pay the
registration fee as soon as reasonably possible.
If the course fills with other people between the
time you register and the time you pay, you will
be notified by the coordinators.
The preferred method is to use the paypal button
You do not need a Paypal account and can pay by
