Mountain Training for Scarborough and Ryedale Rescue Team

Volunteers from the Scarborough and Ryedale Mountain Rescue Team have been training in Scotland.

Members of the Scarborough and Ryedale Mountain Rescue team have been undertaking winter training in the Scottish mountains this week.

16 members of the SRMRT operational team have spent the week in the Cairngorms.

Earlier in the week they completed a skills day with member learning how to stay safe and operate on step ground in winter conditions.

Despite conditions being "very lean" this year the team did manage to find some snow. 

The skills session was concluded with a Climb up 0.5 gully in Corrie an't Sneachda and a walk back over the northern Cairngorm plateau.
