Description and Table of Contents

Description

When your climbing team is in trouble on the mountain - this is how to get yourself out of a jam without calling the rescue teams. This title includes self-rescue procedures for teams of two - the most common climbing party size. It covers techniques equally effective on snow rock and ice. It utilises the gear which climbers carry in their rack, and includes 40 one-page rescue scenarios and solutions for analysis.
