There was a visible relief when I said I was going down the way they wanted to come up. ‘The short way’.
The dad was getting cramps in his thighs & knees. I fed him electrolytes, gave him 1 walking stick for his one hand.
We double checked where they had parked & set off. Slowly downwards.
No rush, plenty of rest & water stops, we got them down safely. While at the car a paraglider flew over. 🧵3

@TheGuardian_uk Terrible news and thoughts with all those involved. Hoping all MRT members stay safe at this busy time of year. 😞 🏴
