Hey all,
Looking for suggestions on self-rescue classes, preferably near the Front Range, Teton or the Winds.

Any companies run stellar classes? Any guides give excellent instruction?
OR
Any companies/guides to avoid?

look into these guys in Boulder:

Vetta Mountain Guides- IFMGA Guides Rob Coppolillo and Mike Arnold
Alpine World Ascents- IFMGA Guide Markus Beck

These guys have awesome personalities and are great teachers.

The Colorado Mountain School hosts self-rescue classes. 2-day courses that usually run on Saturday and Sunday in either Boulder or Estes Park. Great guides, experienced instruction.

All of Rigging for Rescue's offerings are stellar. The instructors for this course are climbers, guides or former guides. Next one is in Ouray in October.
