Reply To: Fall at Mountain Quarry

Done. I’ve just called police and left my details along with a brief description of what happened.

True about first aid courses. Everyone engaged in these activities should do it. Even wrapping a broken limb or snake bite isn’t straightforward without the training. I also recommend the remote area first aid course which is the last one I did. It is quite relevant to climbing/hiking situations.

EW, thanks again for the fantastic job you did.

Another thing to point out is that although we had several 1st aid kits, no one had a pocket mask which would have been really good to have. I am kicking myself because I left mine with my scuba diving 1st aid kit. I will make it part of my standard kit from now on. I recommend having one, as the amount of blood can make things difficult for mouth to mouth.
