Ski Rescue Tarp

About the size of a water bottle, this rescue sled can save you precious time for an unplanned extraction.

Pair this with some 550 cord, carabiners and your own ski polls. *Ski Rescue Tarp does not include cord or straps for securing the patient

A guide in Japan came to our rescue when one of our group members was injured in the backcountry. Would have made for a much longer day had she not had it and I immediately ran home to purchase my own the second I was stateside.

I'd recommend having one of these in every group on a tour and I hope you never have to use it.
