High Angle Rescue

High Angle Rescue involves safely retrieving individuals from elevated or steeply inclined locations, such as cliffs, rooftops, or tall structures. Rescuers use specialized equipment like ropes, harnesses, and pulley systems to descend, stabilize, and lift the victim while minimizing movement and risk. The process requires careful planning, technical skill, and safety precautions to prevent further injury to both the rescuer and the victim. It’s commonly used by fire departments, mountain rescue teams, and industrial responders to reach people trapped or in danger at high elevations with challenging access.
