Trip is cancelled. Please join this one instead: https://bcmc.ca/m/events/view/1528211012

Please note: This is an informal practice session. This is NOT a course. Please sign up only if you are familiar with transferring the weight onto the anchor and what to do from there.

The Plan: We will practice simple crevasse rescue scenarios on Seymour. You're likely to be spending a decent amount of time on the snow, which will be wet, so bring clothing appropriate for this.

Gear: Your typical mountaineering gear such as helmet, ice axe, crampons, harness, prusiks, pulleys, slings, locking/non-locking biners, picket, etc. Again, let's try to make it as realistic as possible!  And of course, we are heading into the mountains so bring your 10 essentials and whatever else you need for the evening.  Don't forget your headlamp!

Please review haul systems & the rescue process before we actually meet to practice. This way it will be a more efficient practice session when it is fresh in everyone's mind. Check out FOTH Ch 17/18.
