We ran a useful cliff rescue training session last week, without actually putting a cliff technician 'over the top'.
We've had some new recruits this year and after a summer of thorough training, we thought it would be useful for them to prepare our cliff top set up in real time as though it were a proper emergency. The exercise was conducted after dark and so involved the floodlights and generator to add to the experience.
The whole team worked quickly and efficiently and we had the lights working, kit unpacked, holdfasts set up and ropes rigged and were ready to start the rescue less that 15 minutes after arriving on scene. A good effort all round.
Then we packed it all up again and went to the station for a debrief.
