After some dry runs near the base, we rigged up a Tyrolean system at Coire Mhic Nobaill and practised raising and lowering a stretcher above the gorge. A quick tour of the new base, which is almost finished, completed a full day for the team.
MISSING PERSON, APPLECROSS, July 2012
Early in July 2012, a young man went missing. He had last been seen in the car park at the top of the Bealach na Ba. An intensive search over the next few was unsuccessful. Then towards the end of September, a clue. A Stalker found a shoe in Coire na Ba that was recognised as the missing person’s. With this clue his remains were soon located by Team members in the gully on the uphill side of the Blue Pillar.
The base of the Blue Pillar can be seen in the centre of the photo.
