The manual reflects what we have learned through many years of responding to rescues and teaching thousands of students. Now in its fourth edition, the manual has been updated and several new chapters have been added. 

Topics includes: safety, equipment, rappelling, pick-offs, stretcher evacuations, patient packaging, improvised high anchor points, and organizing the response.

More than 240 illustrations and photos take you step-by-step through lowering and raising systems, mechanical advantage, and rappel-based rescues. Quality paperback, 208 pages.
