YAS called CRO when a climber (m, 54) fell a short distance (<2m?) onto rocks at Pot Scar, Feizor. Paramedics assessed him and gave pain relief for a shoulder injury. Team members gave him further pain relief, lifting him onto a vacuum mattress to immobilise him, as a precaution. A mountain rescue stretcher was then used to carry him down scree and sledge him across grass to a team Land Rover. This took him down to Scar Close, Feizor for transfer to the waiting road ambulance
