This course is the basic building block for more advanced outdoor skills. Technical Rope Rescue is the perfect introduction for using ropes and rope systems in rock climbing, caving, canyoneering, search and rescue, expedition travel, accessing hazardous terrain, overcoming obstacles in the wilderness and many other activities. This course is essential for the outdoors person who is interested in learning skills beyond the novice level.

This introductory course is designed to familiarize the Expedition Leader or Rescue Responder with basic rope systems. Students will learn basic skills needed for hazardous terrain including ascending, rappelling, knots, equipment use and other techniques. This course is an excellent introduction for the student with no knowledge of rope systems use for rescue or climbing.
