Ace day out at Glen Nevis, pics will follow. The trail was rough with a few fords to cross, stunning waterfalls and nice weather. No surprise I also got a Geocache.
Words loose me as I cannot understand how unprepared some people are when they are going walking even on a route (and you will see a pic) with a sign saying fatal accidents have happened. About 5 mins away from the car a Canadian couple run up from behind and ask if we have mobile signal. There is none, not even for emergency calls. A woman fell about 20-30 feet down a rockface we are told, so ran to the car everyone got in. We had to drive 5 miles to get signal and call an ambulance. Drove back to the car park and with in one min and Ambulance had arrived. The couple take them to the accident. I decided to fall arse over tit in front of the ambulance then crack open sandwiches and eat my lunch in the car. about 15 mins later the Canadian couple comes back.
End result? One lucky lady with a broken leg and quote "mashed up hand" who was getting a trip in a helicopter. Cause? Wrong Footwear/Not paying attention.
