Description

Alpine touring gear is not required for
this training session. The objective is to
practice companion rescue not skin up the
mountain.

Note: This practice is not led by a
certified instructor and is not a
substitute for AST1. Everyone is
encouraged to actively participate. Only
sign up if you have completed AST1 or
better.

The exact location will be determined
closer to the date of the session.

The rough agenda is:

1) Review rescue equipment, and proper
technique for searching, propping and
digging.

2) Split into groups and practice
single and multiple burial searches and
rescues.

This session will be cancelled is it
raining heavily or if the roads to the
mountains are hazardous.
