Self-Rescue
Whether you are climbing the first pitch of the route or you are one thousand feet off the ground, you will need to know how to escape without incident, when things turn around. Sometimes the route is too hard for us, the storm arrives in the middle of the climb or our climbing partner got injured. These are some example of situations where we can be forced to retreat the route and abandon the climb. If that happens, we have to be prepared and have the knowledge and skills to retreat safety to the ground, no matter what part of the wall or the mountain we are. We offer you the most effective techniques using the equipment that you carry during your ascension.
