Pawtuckaway High Angle Rescue Practice

During my lead climbing class, we had a day to start working on the rescue portion of lead climbing. These are the images that I captured. These images are showing how to get to Baseline (away to get off the belay and transition into a rappel, lower, haul, ascend, or to leave and get help). This is directly off the harness and is not the way you should belay from at the top of a cliff. As you can see my friend gets lifted in the air due to the weight of the "climber".
