Self Evacuation Gear
I was just wondering what kind of self evac gear people out there are using. I talking about the gear you might bring to self evac yourself when riding lifts in the winter or during summer maint season when there is no one to evac you if the lift breaks. We have a set-ups to get an injured person back in a basket or down to the ground, but I always like to carry some type of evac gear so that i'm not getting evaced by ski patrol when the lift stops and i'm on it doing a inspection ride. I use a black diamond climbing harness, 3 webbing anchors, a black diamond ATC, 2 locking caribeeners, and about 180ft. of 9mm climbing rope. It all fits into a pretty small bag that isn't that bad to carrry with you or in a backpack. Anyone else out there carry a self evac set up? Do you carry it all the time? What type of gear is in your self evac set up? Does your area give you training on how to use it?
