DMRT is there to help anyone
lost or injured. One of the youngest to need help was a three year
old boy who became separated from his parents high in the Inverlael
forest. Team members were involved in an all-night search until the
boy was found at 2,000 feet tired but fit and well, even though it
was bitterly cold.
Increasingly the team is being called on to
help mountaineers on the hardest mountain ridges. In 1999 three
people lost their lives traversing the notorious Corrag Bhuidhe
pinnacles on An Teallach. Anyone attempting this route should take
great care.
As the terrain and scale of the mountain
country in the Dundonnell area is so difficult, both skilled and
novice mountaineers and walkers have needed help from the team. The
team has also been called to search for lost children, gamekeepers
and people missing from nursing homes.
