A caving instructor (m, 43) slipped on frozen turf after exiting Runscar Cave and sustained a lower leg injury. Having ensured the safety of the client group, the other instructors set up a group shelter for their colleague and called for help. Team members assessed the casualty and immobilised his leg before carrying him, by stretcher, to the road-head. His colleagues drove him to hospital for further assessment and treatment.
