Torridon Mountain Rescue Team
BACK TO BACK CALLOUTSJust as most of the team were settling into their evenings after a full day on the hill training on Sunday, we were called out to assist with a painful ankle injury on the northern slopes of Sgùrr a Chaorachain. Driving up from Craig, we located the casualty just as it got dark before providing pain relief and immobilising for a stretcher carry across steep and boggy ground to the waiting road ambulance. Most of the team were in bed by 3am.Monday morning saw a call come in for another ankle injury in one of the most remote locations in our area, Uags Bothy. The team mobilised at Toscaig for a boat journey around the coast to treat and extract the casualty.It's a beautiful week of sunshine ahead of us in Torridon so we hope you can all make the most of it! Everyone involved in these rescues was well prepared for having an extended wait in the hills when the unexpected happens. Make sure you are #AdventureSmart and head out prepared.Our team is made up entirely of volunteers who are on call to rescue those in need in the Scottish mountains 24/7 365 days a year.

It was a beautiful evening for winch training with the Bristow crew in Inverness last week. A big thanks to the pilots, winch operators and winch paramedics for the base tour and opportunity to get on the cable.Training regularly in friendly environments is important to make these critical skills muscle memory for the real thing, in potentially much more challenging conditions.Maritime and Coastguard Agency @bristowgroup_inc Scottish Mountain Rescue ...

Getting to know our neighbours! The team headed north yesterday for a joint training day with @dundonnell_mountain_rescueIt was a great opportunity to get to know a nearby team who we may have to work closely with on searches, avalanches and other significant callouts. Comparing medical kit, rigging techniques and technology used by each team, we came away with plenty of ideas to use in our own patch!A big thanks to DMRT for their hospitality, openness and arranging lovely weather - we look forward to hosting you all in Torridon soon.Scottish Mountain Rescue ...
