Ski lift evacuation with rescuer on cable
Techniques for evacuation from a ski lift differ significantly from one
situation to another. A technique is chosen based on the slope of
the cable, the clearance above, the distances between pylons,
the number of passengers to evacuate, the recovery zone...
To be completed properly and on time, this operation requires
training.

1. Rescuer accessing the chair
Back-up belay may be done from the pylon. This allows for a
mutual verification of the system before the rescuer moves onto
the cable. The rescuer is suspended on the ROLLCAB, and the
GRILLON lanyard is slightly slack to allow descent along the cable.
