During the week of May 22-24 Station 3A,B,C and D Eng3ine, Res3cue, Lad3der trained on the City of Rockville climbing wall at 860 Avery Rd. With 2 Rock climbing walls in the first due, personnel increased their operational awareness on Rescues from difficult climbing techniques, personal rope skills, top belay, grigri belay, ATC belay and pick offs. All enjoyed the alternative rope training. Thank you to the City of Rockville for allowing us to utilize their recreational facility.
