Clip these lightweight packs onto your fall-arrest harness so you can lower yourself to safety after a fall. They have a D-ring where you can attach your fall-arrest lanyard and 50 ft. of rope coiled inside. If you’re left hanging after a fall, pull the red tab on the shoulder and the pack will gradually release the rope for a controlled descent to the ground. A complete fall-arrest system includes a lanyard, harness, and anchor. When used together with a fall-arrest system, these packs meet OSHA and ANSI safety standards.

Use rescue poles to assist a teammate who’s injured or unconscious. They come with a carabiner and a rope, so you can hook the tab on their pack, pull it, and lower them to the ground.
