A grim few days in the Ogwen Valley.Callout 20+23: 16+22 Feb - Glyder Fach/Tryfan.![]()
Callout 22. After a day on the hills, a couple was descending the main face of Glyder Fach when one slipped on a patch of grass and fell approximately 10 metres. Her walking partner fell while trying to reach her and suffered a suspected fractured wrist and head injuries but called for help and began CPR. @air_ambulance was unable to access the casualty, so 2 hill groups walked in, and a third group was dropped by @maritimecoastguard helicopter at cloudbase near Llyn Bochlwyd. On arrival, the walking partner was treated for their injuries and walked out by team members. Sadly, the fallen casualty did not survive and was stretchered down to below cloudbase for a helicopter pick up and taken to Oggie base.![]()

Callout 23. A group was ascending the north-ridge when one of them fell 20 metres into steep terrain. Passers-by with climbing equipment abseiled down and made her safe, and a team member already nearby made his way down and started CPR. Colleagues from @welshambulanceservice stood by at base while the @maritimecoastguard helicopter dropped team members onto the mountain. Unfortunately, the casualty had not survived her injuries, and she was brought down to Oggie base.![]()
