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.
