[QUOTE="treeclimber165, post: 51908, member: 215"] Nick, As far as liability issues, that can easily be addressed with a combination of current 'good samaritan' laws already in place and specific requirements and conditions to be applied towards an Aerial Rescue Certification. Back to the original question on this thread- Who would YOU want rescuing you? A tree climber who climbs trees daily AND has passed an Aerial Rescue Certification? Or a fireman who has had 3 days training on climbing trees? I'd most certainly prefer an EMT attending me once I was on the ground, but I don't want a nervous fireman 50' in the air trying to figure out how to get me to the ground safely. [/QUOTE]
