The rescue teams on the ground are I think all part time volunteers and they go out in all weathers and very effective they are too. Added to that the Royal Navy, Royal Air Force and the coastguard helecopters are on full time alert. They rely on the idiots, the unwary and the unlucky to give them real practice. Without all these brave and skilled men and women the hills would take a dreadful toll. Take today for instance, the helecopter/s were out three times in just my bit of Scotland. Once for a broken leg, once for a heart attack and once because some people got lost(surprise surprise they had no map). And that is on a still,sunny, warm summers day!
