This is a one-day course offered by Island Alpine Guides (IAG) at Mt Washington. Details are here: https://www.islandalpineguides.com/trips/455
Please note this is not an alternative to an AST 1 course, but is a recommended refresher on current best practices in all aspects of companion rescue. It will provide the opportunity for instruction, extended practice and feedback on the full process. A great way to start the season!
Cost : $135 per person, which is a special rate for current members only.
