Note that need to be aware of the difference between rescues on moving water vs static water. Historically, a lot of ice rescue training did not differentiate between ice rescues in static and those over moving water. An ice rescue in moving water is a very dangerous situation and requires a different approach and strategy than static water as well as additional training and equipment. Only qualified Technicians should attempt to affect a rescue in moving ice water and/or on a frozen river, which have the correct equipment, and number of rescuers plus upstream / downstream spotters and rescuers and a RIT Team.
