    Posted: 01 Sep 2011 at 8:44am
Sometime in the next week or two (maybe next weekend) I'd like to set up some simple rope systems and practice some rescue skills. If you've never been involved in a rescue scenario this would be a great way to see how basic systems work AND get on the river. Anyone want to join in?

All we need are a few people. Maybe this weekend on the Sky would be good. Playboats are fine, I just want to go through some basic stuff like setting good anchor points, how to use a prussik properly and things to consider when setting up a system. Who's in for this weekend?

Sounds good. We can probably set something up at Boulder Drop on the way down. Bring the safety gear you normally bring down the river. If you don't have anything that's okay, I have some stuff.

Sorry to hear it Phil. There will always be a next time. Glad you got your 'practice' in before you got hurt on the Cispus!!
