A busy afternoon at the #BrodickHighlandGames selling burgers with the team.

Just in from a really interesting mountain rescue exercise. We normally train in daylight, but callouts frequently happen at night, especially at this time of year. This scenario involved locating and recovering two injured casualties on steep ground in a remote part of the Northern Hills on Arran. Really good to practice all our skills in the dark. Flipping windy too but thankfully the rain/hail mostly held off.

A fun exercise with the team today. Bit of a navigation exercise with small groups heading across the island collecting checkpoints. I'm full of the cold so my team were full of patience waiting for me to catch up. 😮💨 I taught them how to truly appreciate contouring 😆. (Direct "down-up" approach not working for me today. 😬)
