Local expert mountain guides are holding Self Rescue courses at Lover’s Leap all summer long.

This all day course will cover belay escapes, friction hitches, necessary knots, ascending/descending ropes, and haul systems.

It’s hard to put a price on these skills that can save your life and your partner’s.

Lover’s Leap is located in Strawberry and rises from the American River Canyon floor almost 600 feet to the top point.
