Swiftwater Rescue Technician Advanced
For extreme whitewater and working at night.
About the SRTA Course
This high level course expands upon previous Technician level training into the realm of extreme whitewater in canyon environments and also covers the added risks associated with working in low visibility or darkness. The curriculum includes the advanced swimming skills required for self rescue and rescue of others from more extreme whitewater, as well as high angle rope rescue skills that enable access to areas like canyons and gorges. The course also covers logistical, communications and safety considerations for operating in moving water in low visibility or darkness. It is demanding, fast-paced, and, well ... advanced.
Highly recommended for field personnel like engineers, environmental consultants and hydrologists who will gain the confidence and skills necessary to work in these high risk conditions.
