Newsletter 11 Opening Article

“LIKE A JUNIPER IN THE WILDERNESS”

An ancient Jewish sage spoke these words long before the time of Christ. He painted a word picture of warning to his people in terms they would understand. The Israelites would soon be captives of the invading Babylonian Empire. Those who were strong and resilient, “Like a juniper,” would make it through. How does this phrase relate to us today?

“Solid as granite.” Todd Skinner, professional climber, spoke these words as he tried to explain in a magazine article the vital kinship he has with his rope partner. Todd’s long time sidekick was Paul Piana. Todd and Paul were the first to free climbing the Salathe Route on El Capitan, a feat two decades ahead of its time. They were junipers in the wild, anchored in the solid granite of their souls.

Have you ever studied a juniper attached to granite? This conifer is a rugged and indestructible tree. Junipers survive in the most inhospitable environments yet thrive in these extreme ecologic conditions. Juniper roots grow yards into the granite, tendrils following the cleft in the rock. A living juniper, rooted into the bedrock of earth, can be a thousand years old, and withstand gales, blizzards, and drought.

    rtr_logo_small.jpg Training | Ropes That Rescue Ltd. | Rope Access Courses, Classes, Workshops

    ROPES THAT RESCUE (See Ropes That Rescue Course Schedules Here ):
    Both a comprehensive rope rigging school and a rope access consulting firm based in mountainous northern Arizona with programs around the US, Canada and Australia. The firm teaches roped techniques to emergency rescue teams in industry, mines, wilderness search & rescue, emergency medical and fire services. RTR is renowned for its teaching of practical rigging principles with understanding and simplicity.

    RTR holds workshops specifically for linemen on electric power transmission line tower access & rescue. RTR also teaches firefighters and rescuers on power line rescue with newly released awareness-level seminars. They also teach hard rock high scaling, scaffolding rescue, structural bridge inspection and difficult roped access to industry.

    These courses are in-depth, hands-on courses, emphasizing training the trainer . RTR seminars are designed to foster serious inquiry into the field of rope rescue and rigging with emphasis on testing and serious scrutiny of procedures in use around the country. Therefore, these seminars are those who have established protocols, and are seeking an active investigation and analysis of the multiple disciplines and techniques sure to be present. Students are encouraged to exchange ideas in a friendly and flexible setting. Many people involved with rescue work today know WHAT they believe, but not WHY they believe it. These courses are for those seeking a keen understanding behind a given methodology or procedure. Much of the classroom time is devoted to just such an inquiry, which we believe arms the student with answers to questions your team will certainly ask. In this context, the instructor will remain open to new ideas but will be conducting the class in a manner which will focus course direction. Specialized equipment, while interesting and sometimes timesaving, will be looked upon as peripheral, whereas basic skills knowledge will remain central to the course's objectives. RTR believes that it is these basic skills, which allow the rescuer to problem-solve and improvise in difficult situations which is key to the development of any rescue instructor. Basic skills are sometimes viewed negatively as too basic or rudimentary. It is perhaps the most advanced and thought provoking course of it's kind anywhere in the world-built upon basics.

    Workshops available through Ropes That Rescue include:
    • NFPA and OSHA Vertical Rescue Workshop
    • Rigging Analysis Workshop
    • Personal Skills Workshop
    • Team Skills Workshop
    • Advanced Skills Workshop
    • Minimalist Mountain Workshop
    • Tower Rescue Workshop

    • Industrial Rescue Workshop
    • Arizona Vortex Workshop
