An unfortunate slip on wet grass resulted in an ankle injury. Unable to weight bear the casualty’s husband requested assistance. A convenient track up to Bowscale Tarn allowed Land Rover access close to the injured woman saving a long stretcher carry. After providing analgesia and splinting the ankle, the casualty was packaged for a short sledge back to the team vehicle, and a ride down to the road. They then made their own way to hospital for further checks and treatment.
