For the write up visit here


Please note that the casualty kindly gave the team permission to put these photographs onto the site (taken by his son) in order that other walkers are reminded of the potential dangers of hillwalking, and that accidents can happen to anyone.  Also to promote the voluntary nature of the service.  Many thanks for the photos.
