Many climbers are unable to respond effectively when the unthinkable happens in climbing.
We believe every climber should have the rescue skills climbing can demand. These skills are technical, sequential and often counter-intuitive. When a leader falls and is hurt, or when a second must get up or down a rope, there's no time to learn what to do. Rescue I teaches belay escape via tying off the fallen leader, and how to go up or down the rope via prussiks. You've led the climb, set the anchor, and belayed your partner halfway up.
