Description

Having self-rescue skills is essential for when a multi-pitch climb doesn’t go as you planned it. These skills make the difference between a minor misadventure and an emergency in many cases, such as that of a partner getting injured or the terrain being too difficult.

We’ll cover many rescue techniques in this clinic, including:

  • Rope ascension

  • Hauling systems

  • Mastering ATC guide or Reverso

  • Load transfers- passing a knot, belay escape, etc.

  • Rappels (rappeling safely and what to do if things go wrong)

  • And more

The level of this clinic is intermediate/advanced. To participate you must have sport or trad multi-pitch experience. You must also be able to make an equalized anchor, set up a rappel, and belay from above.

Book now for two days of enlightening instruction with a professional climber, and know that you’re prepared for the unexpected every time you go climbing.

I was looking for a local guide for a hike I was planning and came across Explore-Share. They seemed to have good reviews and so decided to give them a try. The experience was very positive and completely happy with their service. I will be using them again for next trip.

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.
