The Handbook on Cave rescue techniques illustrates the techniques adopted by the Italian Cave and Alpine Rescue Organization (CNSAS) to rescue injured cavers.
These techniques are the result of decades of uninterrupted experiences, changes and improvements involving every level of the CNSAS. These techniques are characterized by the use of two ropes.
Two years after the Italian edition, we now present the English version - the translation of the handbook represented a stimulating challenge.
This handbook is intended to be used as a tool for future collaborations and it is a contribution to set up a common language.
