Personal Rescue

This year-round course is open to those with prior climbing and ropework experience who want to expand their rescue toolbox. We will focus on partner rescue – escaping the belay chain, simple mechanical advantage, and safe lowering techniques. After a morning of “ground school”, we will move to the cliff and practice these new skills in different climbing scenarios. Pricing same as climbing days.

Team Rescue

This course will be tailored to rescue groups who want to learn more complex rigging and the science behind it, including complex litter lowers and raises, high lines, and deflections. Participants will draw from Sunrise guides extensive military experience, using expedient methods tempered by knowledge of equipment and rescue fundamentals. This flexible course has flexible pricing, contact us for details.

SAR (Search and Rescue)

This four day course will prepare participants for the National Association of Search and Rescue (NASAR) Level 1 test.

Participants draw from our extensive technical rescue, wilderness navigation, and active SAR team experiences to get the most up to date SAR education available. This course requires a minimum of 4 participants, $450 each.
