Public description
The team were called to assist a 74yo man who had got stuck near the top of Thorpe Cloud on a steep slope. His inappropriate footwear had insufficient grip for the terrain and he had resorted to removing his shoes in an attempt to get better grip. However, when he also attempted to remove his socks, he dropped his shoes which then rolled away down the hill leaving the man unable to continue. A walker on the opposite hill spotted the man and noticed he had not moved over a period of time and dialled 999.The DLRAA Air Ambulance and 13 team members attended the incident and were able to walk the man off the hill and take him back to his hotel. The man was uninjured.
