Improvised Rescue and Problem Solving

Yesterday me and Dan headed out with James thacker http://www.jamesthacker.co.uk/ to have a look at some improvised ropework and problem solving. Milestone Buttress on Tryfan made an ideal venue to practice some rope trickery including learning how to escape the system, lower and abseil past a knot, counter balance rescues, assisted abseils and more.

The day went really well as the weather held off and we managed to pack a fair ammount of advanced techniques into the day. James proved to be a wealth of knowledge, and a good laugh, showing us a couple of little tricks that could come in very handy along the way, like the rope bomb!!

Cheers for a great day James!
