This L3 RSR course is designed to teach recognition and avoidance of common river hazards, execution of self-rescue techniques, and simple rescues for paddlers in distress. Emphasis is placed both on personal safety and simple, commonly used skills. This course is aimed at whitewater boaters interested in learning fundamental river rescue skills, such as wading, throw ropes, swimming, rigging and craft-based rescue.
