The team were called out on Saturday at 8:30pm to a 55-year-old male who had been climbing at Wildcat Crag when he became cragfast (unable to move up or down the crag) and called for help. A local farmer provided a safety rope for the man and helped direct rescuers as they arrived. The team worked with Derbyshire Fire & Rescue Service to get the man back to the top of the crag safely.

This is a placeholder post for a recent callout. We're currently gathering all the details and will update this blog post soon. Check back later for the full story!
