Minimalist Wilderness Rigging is the third volume of 'A Practitioner's Study' series. This book is a continuation of the first two volumes - 'About Rope Rescue Rigging' and 'Insights Into Confined Space Rescue'. The primary focus of this book is the wilderness environment and the advanced rigging skills needed to attempt a rescue in this harsh domain.Wilderness rigging specific to rope rescue has always been the ancestor to what we might consider today as modern NFPA driven fire/rescue rope rigging. How ironic that we go back to many of those ancestral rigging roots to address new modern-day rescue challenges - most notably, REMS (Rapid Extraction Module Support) designed as a command component for rescuing wildland firefighters and the time honored traditions of wilderness search and rescue teams.The common thread with all aspects of wilderness rescue is that there's usually not an abundance of immediate advanced medical and rescue support. As such, standard fire/rescue rope rescue equipment will most likely not be available. These challenging factors mandate that the limited few rescuers attempting a wilderness rope rescue need to be at the top of their game when it comes to minimalist rigging.
