Description

Rock scaling is one of the world's most dangerous professions, found in regions with glacially-carved mountains like Norway, Switzerland, and Canada. These trained rope access technicians work on near-vertical cliffs, removing unstable boulders before they cause deadly rockfalls onto roads below. The job requires extreme skill and courage, preventing over 50 road closures annually in Norway alone. #RockScaling #ExtremeJobs #Norway #RopeAccess #DangerousWork #Infrastructure #RoadSafety #Glaciers #MountainLife #LifeSavingWork
