Course Description:  Open for all people who climb trees

As we care for trees, we also need to care for our tribe. Performing an aerial rescue is not something you want to learn on the job. Most businesses don’t have the time nor the opportunity to train on the clock. This class is designed to create the necessary building blocks for real world scenarios before you encounter an emergency. Each person will have the opportunity to perform and assist in aerial rescue scenario.  This class is designed to allow for climbers to have more hands-on practice.

Receive a Certificate of Completion to renew your EHAP, Certified Tree Climber Credential, and for your annual ANSI requirement.

*Climbing experience necessary (must be able to tie your own systems and ascend and descend).

Gear Rental is Available: $50/pp
