⛑️January training ❄️The team’s January training was focused on medical scenarios and a day on the hill focusing on winter skills.Our evening session saw team members being put through their paces in four different realistic medical scenarios in the dark. The volunteer casualties did a fantastic job of making the scenarios feel as real as possible. Last Sunday the team travelled to the Glenshee area to practice winter skills on a typically Scottish winters day.Yesterday afternoon also saw the second callout of 2025 with a limited number of team members deploying to assist a disoriented hill walker.
