CAPRE 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. As a team, we are totally reliant on public donations. Please consider supporting our vital work at the link in our bio. Thank you.#torridon #bealachnaba #bealachnabà #nc500 #roperescue ...

"so you're going to run 55km around these hills and swim 3.5km across five lochs enroute?""Yes!"We are lucky to have some wildly capable people in our team, and this was demonstrated at the weekend by our very own @stretton.sarah who took on a solo, unsupported 'Ring of Stirling' round - the wildest swim/run in the UK. Taking in the Torridon giants and some committing swimming, including across the Diabaig Narrows, Sarah made the most of the recent stable weather to cruise around in style - not even wearing a wetsuit!The round was created in memory of Chris Stirling who loved these rugged landscapes, and competed in multiple @cxtriCeltman triathlons here. Search 'Ring of Stirling' to find out more about the round and get inspired to take it on yourself."All good adventures start in Shieldaig" - Chris Stirling@scottishmountainrescue#ringofstirling#torridon#swimrun#westerross#nc500 ...
