Firefighters from the Boston FD, Somerville FD, and Cambridge Rescue 1 participated in a Hi-Angle Rope Rescue training program, performing practical evolutions from the upper deck of a six-story parking garage. Patient movement, rope anchoring, edge transitions, and coordinated team communication were the main topics of the training. The course, led by Corvus Professional, emphasized safe rigging practices, system physics, and operational control—skills essential for technical rescues in multi-story buildings, construction sites, and steep terrain.
