HOW TO CREVASSE RESCUE with Xavier De Le Rue, How To Xv

If you are crossing glaciers, it is worth knowing how to undertake a crevasse rescue, something hopefully you never have to use, but worth having in your toolkit. In this episode of How To Xv I go through the steps of how to rescue someone who has fallen in a crevasse. Covering the steps you have to take, securing yourself, creating an anchor and belaying, this video will give you a basic overview of what to expect, but the reality is you need to get out there and practice this, because if, when it happens, just knowing the theory will only get you so far. Let me know if you have any questions in the comments below. Edit by: Tim Burgess Motion Graphics by: FX Pergola. Thanks to: Swatch, Smith, Rossignol Crosscall.
