The team were called by North Yorkshire Police to a report of a walker (f,20) collapsed and becoming hypothermic, approaching Ingleborough summit. On reaching the casualty, two of the team’s casualty carers administered first aid and began warming the casualty, whilst other team members prepared for a stretcher carry.
The casualty was then stretchered down towards Crina Bottom Farm to drop below the cloud base, so she could be airlifted to hospital by the Yorkshire Air Ambulance Helimed 99.
