Torridon Mountain Rescue Team is at An Ruadh-stac.

3 weeks ago

Late on Friday night the team was alerted to an overdue walker on An Ruadh Stac in the Coulags area of our range. The team was deployed and after a search of various routes around the mountain, unfortunately a person was found with no signs of life. Our thoughts are with the friends and family of the deceased at this difficult time.The team is grateful as ever to the Coastguard R151 helicopter crew for assisting with deploying a search team onto the hill, and for returning in the early hours to carry both the team and body off the mountain.Our team is made up of unpaid volunteers, and operates entirely on donations. Please consider donating today to help us fund our vital work in the Scottish mountains.Scottish Mountain Rescue ... See MoreSee Less

Torridon Mountain Rescue Team

1 month ago

CAPE WRATH ULTRAThis time last week it was sunbathing weather on the summits, but oh how quickly that fades into a distant memory!One thing that won't be fading into the memory will be what the competitors of the Cape Wrath Ultra® have achieved over the past week and more. Covering over 400km in 8 days across some of the most challenging terrain in Scotland, the race saw Scotland's full range of weather conditions.When entering, the competitors are given the option to donate to the volunteer Mountain Rescue teams through which the race passes - and we met Shane and Dave of Ourea Events® on the sunny finish line in Kinlochewe to collect the £300 cheque* for Torridon MRT, and see their impressive race setup.A huge thank you to the competitors for their donations towards our team, and to Ourea Events for setting an industry leading example of how commercial events can support and operate alongside volunteer Mountain Rescue teams. We look forward to the next one!*The eagle eyed amongst you will notice this is a reused cheque from last year - and we can't argue with that approach to sustainability!Scottish Mountain Rescue #capewrathultra #cwu2025 #capewrath #capewrathtrail #eventmedical ...

WESTER ROSS THE PLACE TO BE!It was a busy weekend for the team with Saturday seeing the Bealach Na Ba Cycle Sportive head over the Bealach na Bà, with the team providing First Aid support at key locations around the route. It's fantastic to be able to support these community events, and the team is very grateful for the donations that allow us to operate as a volunteer team.In parallel, Scottish Mountain Rescue were holding a technical rigging course at our base in Torridon, with volunteers from multiple teams across Scotland coming together under the watchful eye of rope wizards, Dave Chapman and Jon Sanders. @cairngormmrt TaysideMRT Cairngorm Adventure Guides @adventure_course_construction Big thanks to the instructors for such an excellent course.All of this critical training uses volunteer time and costs money.
