Baslow Edge

Posted by Kevin Corcoran in Callouts on 12 May 2012 | 1 Comments

A section of the team were taking part in crag training at Baslow Edge, near Froggat, when they were alerted to an injured climber.

The 31yo casualty had been bouldering in the near vicinity when he fell from the rock he was climbing, causing a painful ankle injury. Team personnel were quickly on scene and he was treated by team medics before being evacuated by stretcher to the road, where he could be handed over to an ambulance for onward transport to hospital.
