Mountain rescue training on real terrain

The scenario: a climber was using an ascender on a rope and got injured to the extent of being unable to assist the rescuer

If you are on the belay station above the climber, just build 3:1 pulley system and pull them up

If you are below:
- get to the injured climbing on an ascender
- build a micro pulley out of some cord and two carabiniers, on your ascender
- lift the climber to release load from their ascender
- prepare the descender, clip into and transfer your bodyweight from your ascender
- use prussic to secure the rope below(!) the descender
- clip the injured climber to the descender, then remove their ascender
- lower them on the pulley to remove load from your ascender and remove it from the rope
- make a chest harness out of the cord
- release the prussic and descend

(not a manual, just the way I did it)
